Product overview
The RCTimer ArduFlyer/APM V2.5.2 Flight Controller (Side Pin Version) provides an open source autopilot for integration into a vehicle. Its stated applications cover fixed-wing aircraft, rotary-wing aircraft and multirotors, as well as cars and boats, with programmed GPS waypoint missions as a core function. The design derives from 3DRobotics and supports Arduino and ArduPilot Mega 2.5.2 compatibility. For procurement, this is a flight-control component intended for a vehicle installation, rather than a complete aircraft.
The hardware combines motion, heading and pressure sensing with onboard logging memory. It uses an Invensense MPU-6000 6 DoF accelerometer/gyro, an HMC5883L digital compass on the main board and a Measurement Specialties MS5611-01BA03 barometric pressure sensor. A 16Mbit Dataflash chip supports automatic data logging. Integration flexibility comes from the supplied straight and right-angle I/O pins. The RC/Servo connectors arrive unsoldered, so installation requires choosing the connector orientation and soldering them into place to suit the vehicle layout.
