Pixhawk 2.4.8 PX4 32-Bit Flight Controller Kit for FPV Drone & Quadcopter

Description

The Pixhawk 2.4.8 32-Bit Flight Controller is a versatile autopilot platform designed for multirotors, fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters, boats and other autonomous vehicles. Based on the FMUv2 architecture, it provides the processing power and interfaces required for advanced flight-control and autonomous navigation applications.

The controller features a STM32F427 Cortex-M4 processor with hardware floating-point processing and a dedicated backup processor for improved reliability. Its integrated sensor suite includes gyroscope, accelerometer, magnetometer and precision barometer for accurate attitude and altitude measurement.

Pixhawk 2.4.8 supports a wide range of interfaces including UART, CAN, I2C, SPI, PPM, SBUS, DSM/DSM-X and RSSI, allowing it to work with various receivers, GPS modules, telemetry systems and other peripherals. It also provides 14 PWM outputs, a microSD card interface, buzzer, safety button and external USB connectivity.

With support for manual and automatic operation, the flight controller can be used for autonomous missions, waypoint navigation, FPV aircraft, custom UAVs and experimental robotics platforms.
