Pixhawk 6C with PM02 Power Module

The Pixhawk® 6C is a cutting-edge addition to the renowned Pixhawk® series of flight controllers. Built on the Pixhawk® FMUv6C Open Standard and Connector Standard, it comes with pre-installed PX4 Autopilot®. It is powered by an STMicroelectronics® based STM32H743 and incorporates sensor technology from Bosch® & InvenSense®. The Pixhawk® 6C is ideal for controlling any autonomous vehicle and is suitable for both academic and commercial applications.

The Pixhawk® 6C's H7 microcontroller, which contains the Arm® Cortex®-M7 core, operates at a speed of up to 480 MHz. It is equipped with 2MB flash memory and 1MB RAM. The increased processing power enhances developer productivity and efficiency, facilitating the execution of complex algorithms and models. The FMUv6C open standard features high-performance, low-noise IMUs, offering cost-effective IMU redundancy. The controller also has a vibration isolation system to filter high-frequency vibrations and reduce noise, ensuring accurate readings and improved overall flight performance.

The Pixhawk® 6C is an excellent resource for corporate research labs, startups, academic institutions, and commercial applications. It enables the development of advanced autonomous vehicles and drones, providing a versatile platform for innovation and experimentation.

The PM02 Power Module is an efficient way to provide your autopilot flight controller with clean power from a LiPo battery. It offers current consumption and battery voltage measurements through a 6-pos cable. The module's on-board switching regulator outputs 5.2V and a maximum of 3A from up to a 12S LiPo battery. The fully-assembled module comes with XT60 connectors and is wrapped in shrink tubing for protection. It is designed to power the autopilot flight controller, a RC receiver and APM accessories. The GH terminal is also compatible with Pix32, Pixhawk4, Pixhawk4 mini, Pix32v5 and Durandal.
