HKPilot32 Flight Controller

The Hobbyking® HKPilot32 autopilot is based on the Pixhawk®-project FMUv2 open hardware design. It runs the PX4 Flight Stack on the NuttX OS.

The HKPilot32 is software compatible with the 3DR® Pixhawk 1. It is not connector compatible, but is otherwise physically very similar to the 3DR Pixhawk or mRo Pixhawk.
