Questions
How big is the 6-axisIMU PCB?
It measures 50.8 × 25.4 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the 6-axisIMU use?
17 parts, built around the ICM-42670-P. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the 6-axisIMU KiCad files?
From the GTPL-Testing/MonopropUAV repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Electronics/6-axisIMU/6-axisIMU.kicad_pcb and its schematic Electronics/6-axisIMU/6-axisIMU.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the 6-axisIMU design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MPL-2.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
