Holybro Pixhawk 6X Standard Set

Holybro Pixhawk 6X Standard Set（Discontinued）

The Holybro Pixhawk 6C → Pixhawk 6X is the newest upgrade to the proven Pixhawk® flight controller lineup. First of all, it follows the Pixhawk® FMUv6X Open Standard and Pixhawk® Autopilot Bus Standard. Moreover, it ships with PX4 Autopilot® pre-installed.

• It uses the STMicroelectronics® STM32H753 processor.
• In addition, it combines sensors from Bosch® and InvenSense®.
• Therefore, it delivers flexible and reliable control for autonomous vehicles.
• It works well for both academic study and commercial projects.

The Holybro Pixhawk 6X’s H7 microcontroller uses an Arm® Cortex®‑M7 core. It runs at up to 480 MHz and includes 2MB flash memory plus 1MB RAM. As a result, the upgraded processing power boosts developer productivity. It also supports complex algorithms and advanced models.

Furthermore, the FMUv6X open standard integrates high-performance, low-noise on-board IMUs. These sensors improve flight stabilization. Specifically, it has triple redundant IMUs and dual redundant barometers on separate buses. When PX4 Autopilot finds a sensor fault, the system switches smoothly to a backup sensor. This function keeps flight control reliable. Besides, every sensor set gets power from an independent LDO with separate power management. Meanwhile, a vibration isolation system filters high-frequency vibration. It lowers noise to guarantee precise sensor readings. In turn, aircraft achieve better overall flight performance.

Additionally, the external SPI5 sensor bus has two chip select lines and data-ready signals. You can connect extra SPI sensors and payloads. What’s more, it features a built-in Microchip Ethernet PHY. Thus, high-speed communication with mission computers over Ethernet becomes available.

In short, the Holybro Pixhawk 6X fits corporate research labs, startups, professors, students and commercial developers. On top of that, Holybro supplies two matching baseboards: the Pixhawk Baseboard and Pixhawk Mini-Baseboard. Each option has a unique form factor and interface set.
