The Pixhawk® 6C Mini is the latest update to the successful family of Pixhawk® flight controllers, based on the Pixhawk® FMUv6C Open Standard and Connector Standard. It shares the same STMH743 microprocessor and sensors as thePixhawk®6C. Compared to the standardPixhawk® 6C, this Mini version has a built-in PWM header, and some ports have been removed in order to fit this Mini form factor.
Inside the Pixhawk® 6C Mini, you can find an STMicroelectronics®-based STM32H743, paired with sensor technology from Bosch® & InvenSense®, giving you flexibility and reliability for controlling any autonomous vehicle, suitable for both academic and commercial applications.
The Pixhawk® 6C Mini's H7 microcontroller contains the Arm® Cortex®-M7 core running up to 480 MHz and has 2MB flash memory and 1MB RAM. Thanks to the updated processing power, developers can be more productive and efficient with their development work, allowing for complex algorithms and models.
The FMUv6C open standard includes high-performance, low-noise IMUs on board, designed to be cost-effective while having IMU redundancy. A vibration isolation system to filter out high-frequency vibration and reduce noise to ensure accurate readings, allowing vehicles to reach better overall flight performances.
The Pixhawk® 6C Mini is perfect for developers at corporate research labs, startups, academics (research, professors, students), and commercial applications.
Key Design Points
High performance STM32H743 Processor with more computing power & RAM
New cost-effective design in a small form factor
IMU redundancy with sensor technology from Bosch® & InvenSense®
Integrated vibration isolation system to filter out high frequency vibration and reduce noise to ensure accurate readings
IMUs are temperature-controlled by onboard heating resistors, allowing optimum working temperature of IMUs
when i received mine the box and everything was not damaged but when i opened it the canopy was cracked and the VTX did not work when i tried my first battery. I'm alright with the vtx being DOA as all i really wanted was the motors and beeeye camara, But when i reached out to customer service i was blamed for crashing it (even tho i never flew it). beware the QC is total garbage. save your money and buy a Mobula6 from a reputable company like GetFPV for RDQ's. I wasn't going to write a review but after the email i received i don't want anyone else getting scammed.
Darren excelled in selecting the development kit and essential accessories that would have to purchase separately, ensuring I made an informed purchase. His attention to detail and dedication prevented any post-purchase disappointment. I am thoroughly pleased and grateful for his exceptional service.
An absolute pleasure to fly. Handles incredibly well and responds to any input just as I expected.
The only criticism is not of the performance of the drone. Unfortunately, it arrived with damage to the canopy. But I was still able to fly it and make initial observations.
Update process is cumbersome, better if done with the VTX out of the quad. Also the update port is much flimsier than the earlier 2 antenna versions, IMO.
