What is Pixhawk?
What is Pixhawk. Pixhawk is an independent open-hardware project that aims to provide the standard for readily-available, hiqh-quality and low-cost autopilot hardware designs for the academic, hobby and developer communities. Pixhawk supports multiple flight stacks: PX4 ® and ArduPilot ®.
What is the MRO Pixhawk?
Originally manufactured by 3DR ® this board was the original standard microcontroller platform for PX4. While the board is no longer manufactured by 3DR, you can use the mRo Pixhawk as a drop-in replacement.
What is bonuspixhawk 4®?
Pixhawk 4® is an advanced autopilot designed and made in collaboration with Holybro ® and the PX4 team. It is optimized to run PX4 v1.7 and later, and is suitable for academic and commercial developers. It is based on the Pixhawk-project FMUv5 open hardware design and runs PX4 on the NuttX
Why is the flash memory of Pixhawk limited to 1 MB?
Older versions of Pixhawk use an early version of the STM32F427 chip (RevA, RevY and Rev1). A hardware bug is present in these chips that limit the flash memory to 1 MB. Any boards containing this chip cannot include all ArduPilot features due to this limitation.
