Sensor set for v5x & v6x updates
Due to global supply shortages, we are trying to help advise HW vendors on how to replace parts for both standards, here are the lists of alternatives we are discussing on the call.
IMU alternatives
Mag alternatives
Motion Tracking alternatives
Baro alternatives to the BMP388
Action: Spec the best two on paper (as long as they are affordable)
Action: Check on availability of the chosen parts.
Action: After the above, make a final decision, and switch to those.
Test flights with FMUv6X were successful!
Initial test flights by Auterion were successful, and we are ready to lock up the standard. (see flight log below)
