Questions
How big is the Flight Master PCB?
It measures 100 × 200 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Flight Master use?
110 parts, built around the MCP3008-I/P, LM393 and RP2040-ZERO. 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 Flight Master KiCad files?
From the abekouichi/Flight_Master repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Flight_Master.kicad_pcb and its schematic Flight_Master.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Flight Master design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
