The Pix32 v6 is the latest update to the pix32 v5 flight controllers. It is a variant of the Pixhawk 6C. It is comprised of a separate flight controller and carrier board which are connected by a 100 pin connector. It is designed for those pilots who need a high power, flexible and customizable flight control system.
Inside the Pix32 v6, 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 Pix32 v6’s H7 microcontroller contain the Arm® Cortex®-M7 core running up to 480 MHz, 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. It 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.
This flight controller is perfect for people that is looking for a affordable and modular flight controller that can use a customized baseboard. We have made the pix32 v6 base board schematics public, you can either make a custom carrier board yourself or just let us help you with it. By using a customize baseboard, you can make sure that the physical size, pinouts and power distribution requirements match your vehicle perfectly, ensuring that you have all the connections you need and none of the expense and bulk of connectors you don’t.
Key Design Points
High performance STM32H743 Processor with more computing power & RAM
New cost-effective design with low-profile form factor
Newly designed 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
At first I have a relatively low flight time with my Meteor65 Pro. Then I decided to lighten the Pro. I think because the motors (smaller) have a lower current draw the Nitro Nector Golds are really shining. It is at least comparable to a lot of other packs I have. So the capacity is definitely great, just don’t use them in a high current environment and they will work very well.
For tiny whoop racing, I prefer this motor with the hummingbird guts (AIO camera and canopy) on the 65pro frame with 4-blade 35mm props. Close to 20g, phenomenal run time.
Some people at the racetrack (and CIOTTI) call this an "old school" motor.
I usually make my own 180 degree power pigtail, but BETAFPV designed the perfect pigtail for a fair price, had to buy them... I usually don't like BETAFPV BT2.0 pigtail wires, the silicon is high quality, but where you solder the wire right next to the wire is where it always breaks, I don't expect this to change :-(
I would recommend these excellent BT2.0 Cable Pigtails :-))))
