CUAV X7+ Flight Controller | Autopilot For PX4 & APM Drone Hardware

X7+^® is an advanced autopilot independently designed by CUAV^®. It uses a higher-performance STM32H7 processor and integrates industrial-grade sensors. Compared with the previous flight controller,it has better performance and more reliability. This board can run ArduPilot firmware perfectly, and it will also be compatible with PX4 firmware. X7+ is ideal for academic research and commercial systems integration.

Size and Pinouts

Voltage Ratings

• X7+ AutoPilot can be triple-redundant on the power supply if three power sources are supplied. The two power rails are: POWERA, POWERC and *USB.

Normal Operation Maximum Ratings

Under these conditions all power sources will be used in this order to power the system:

1. POWERA and POWERC inputs (4.5V to 5.4V)
2. USB input (4.75V to 5.25V)

Debug Port

The system’s serial console and SWD interface operate on the DSU7 port. Simply connect the FTDI cable to the DSU7 connector (the product list contains the CUAV FTDI cable).

Peripherals

• Digital Airspeed Sensor
• Telemetry Radio
• Rangefinders/Distance sensors
