Pixhawk PX4 Autopilot PIX 2.4.8 32 Bit Flight Controller

DESCRIPTION

The benefits of the Pixhawk system include integrated multithreading, a Unix/Linux-like programming environment, completely new autopilot functions such as sophisticated scripting of missions and flight behaviour, and a custom PX4 driver layer ensuring tight timing across all processes. These advanced capabilities ensure that there are no limitations to your autonomous vehicle. Pixhawk allows existing APM and PX4 operators to seamlessly transition to this system and lowers the barriers to entry for new users to participate in the exciting world of autonomous vehicles.

The flagship Pixhawk module will be accompanied by new peripheral options, including a digital airspeed sensor, support for an external multi-colour LED indicator and an external magnetometer. All peripherals are automatically detected and configured.

This package includes all essential parts required to make your multirotor, plane or rover working and controllable through autopilot. Other accessories like telemetry, external LED, and I2C splitter can be bought later on.
