Holybro, a UAV hardware manufacturer delivering high-quality components for the drone industry since 2014, is excited to make available the Pixhawk 6X & Pixhawk 6C flight controller this month, built on the Pixhawk® open standard. Holybro’s Pixhawk 6X & 6C will be the latest update to the successful family of Pixhawk flight controllers. The two flight controllers have different form factors and function for different needs, both have the powerful H7 processor and can withstand the most demanding applications and work conditions.
Pixhawk 6X has a modular design, it can provide easy extensibility. Holybro provides two different Pixhawk baseboards for different vehicle sizes. While the pixhawk 6C has a cost-effective all-in-one design and low profile form factor. Holybro is the manufacturer behind industry favorites Pixhawk® 4, Durandal, KakuteF7, and PX4® Vision Dev Kit, which earned them the trust of the drone industry, thanks to their top-notch quality and reliability, paired with outstanding customer support.
Pixhawk 6X Key Design Points
