Drone Control Board Development

Brief description:

  • We developed a versatile drone control solution using an STM32F4 microcontroller and the Pixhawk flight control system. The primary communication channel leverages UART for sending user commands, ensuring a reliable and low-latency control interface. To provide system redundancy, we also implemented PPM (Pulse Position Modulation) control, using two general purpose timers for signal generation, guaranteeing continued operation in case of primary channel failure.
