FMUv6X

  • Team discussed current capabilities of the spec
    • The most significant change from v5x is the move to H7

Open Questions: For the whole group, in particular manufacturers

  • Are the current interfaces outlined enough?

PX4 Hardware support categories

The document attached was created to streamline the process of adding hardware support for new flight controllers. Feedback needed from the group.

Pixhawk Payload

Yuneec presented a payload interface that they are looking to release in some of their products in 2020. Yuneec is currently reviewing the dovetail proposal from FreeFly. TODO: Yuneec will share their interface with the team ahead of next week’s call for in-depth review.

The Pixhawk Payload is now tracked on a separate document
