Pixhawk 6C with PM07 Power Module

The Pixhawk® 6C is the latest addition to the Pixhawk® flight controllers series. It is based on the Pixhawk® FMUv6C Open Standard and Connector Standard and comes pre-installed with the PX4 Autopilot®. The Pixhawk® 6C houses an STMicroelectronics® based STM32H743, complemented by sensor technology from Bosch® & InvenSense®, making it versatile and reliable for controlling any autonomous vehicle. It is ideal for both academic and commercial applications.

The H7 microcontroller in the Pixhawk® 6C boasts an Arm® Cortex®-M7 core running up to 480 MHz, 2MB flash memory, and 1MB RAM. This advanced processing power enhances productivity and efficiency for developers, enabling complex algorithms and models. The FMUv6C open standard features high-performance, low-noise IMUs, designed for cost-effectiveness and IMU redundancy. The Pixhawk® 6C includes a vibration isolation system that filters out high-frequency vibration and reduces noise, ensuring accurate readings and improved overall flight performance.

The Pixhawk® 6C is an excellent choice for developers in corporate research labs, startups, academics (researchers, professors, students), and commercial application developers.

The included Power Management Board (PM Board) functions as both a Power Module and a Power Distribution Board. Besides providing regulated power to Pixhawk 4 and the ESCs, it also sends information to the autopilot about the battery voltage and current supplied to the flight controller and the motors.
