Overview

FlightController is an open-source printed circuit board by dylanjacobsun, from the dylanjacobsun/flight_Controller repository on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board with 85 parts on 156 nets.

It is built around the SX1281IMLTRT, TESEO-LIV3F and DPS368XTSA1, with the BD33IA5WEFJ-E2, MIC2004-0.5YM5-TR and U.FL-R-SMT-1(01) among its other parts. Its parts include 42 capacitors, 13 resistors, 12 ICs, 6 inductors and 5 connectors. It belongs with the robots and motor control boards and the STM32 boards of this library.

Objective

Purpose of this project is to develop an autonomous flying wing that will fly waypoint missions. I am designing and building everything myself including electrical schematics, PCB layout, component assembly, and system testing. The flight controller will be running on FreeRTOS and will be programmed in C.

Questions

What parts does the FlightController use?

85 parts, built around the SX1281IMLTRT, TESEO-LIV3F, DPS368XTSA1 and BD33IA5WEFJ-E2. 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 FlightController KiCad files?

From the dylanjacobsun/flight_Controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is flightController_Local_Main/flightController.kicad_pcb and its schematic flightController_Local_Main/Power.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the FlightController design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask dylanjacobsun before reusing the design.
