CubePilot Cube Orange Flight Controller
WARNING
PX4 does not manufacture this (or any) autopilot. Contact the manufacturer for hardware support or compliance issues.
The Cube Orange flight controller is a flexible autopilot intended primarily for manufacturers of commercial systems.
The controller is designed to be used with a domain-specific carrier board in order to reduce the wiring, improve reliability, and ease of assembly. For example, a carrier board for a commercial inspection vehicle might include connections for a companion computer, while a carrier board for a racer could includes ESCs for the frame of the vehicle.
The ADS-B carrier board includes a customized 1090MHz ADSB-In receiver from uAvionix. This provides attitude and location of commercial manned aircraft within the range of Cube. This is automatically configured and enabled in the default PX4 firmware.
Cube includes vibration isolation on two of the IMU's, with a third fixed IMU as a reference / backup.
TIP
The manufacturer Cube Docs contain detailed information, including an overview of the Differences between Cube Colours.
