Faster F765 processor
V5+ selects the STM32F765 processor with better performance. Its main frequency is up to 216MHZ and it contains 2MB FLASH/512K RAM. The clock speed is higher, the RAM is larger, and the speed will be greatly improved.
New FMUv5 hardware design
V5+ is a high-performance flight control system created by CUAV based on FMUv5 open source hardware. It has a more advanced processor than FMUv3, a larger FLASH and RAM, and a more stable and reliable sensor.
Support RTK centimeter positioning
V5+ supports RTK positioning module to achieve accurate centimeter positioning to meet your higher positioning requirements. (RTK positioning module needs to be purchased separately)
PX4 official standard
CUAV is a premium member of Dronecode and has been working to promote the PX4 open source project. The V5+ interface is designed according to the official PX4 standard to ensure compatibility and interoperability with hardware and software products in the PX4 ecosystem.
Multi-sensor redundancy combination
Built-in 5 sets of sensors, the flight controller monitors the multi-channel sensor data in real time, and performs redundant switching immediately after the failure, improving flight safety and stability.
