Questions
How big is the Drone Flight Controller PCB?
It measures 100 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Drone Flight Controller use?
92 parts, built around the ESP32-WROOM-32, DPS368, BNO055 and BC846C. 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 Drone Flight Controller KiCad files?
From the Anothyre/drone repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCAD/Drone_Flight_Controller/Drone_Flight_Controller.kicad_pcb and its schematic KiCAD/Drone_Flight_Controller/14.8V to 3.3V Voltage Converter.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Drone Flight Controller design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Anothyre before reusing the design.
