Questions
How big is the FC PROTOTYPE PCB?
It measures 50 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the FC PROTOTYPE use?
88 parts, built around the STM32F405RGT6, CH340E, MPRLS0015PA0000SA and PCA9685PW. 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 FC PROTOTYPE KiCad files?
From the Harihara0309/Flightcontroller_PCB_design repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is FC_PROTOTYPE.kicad_pcb and its schematic FC_PROTOTYPE.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the FC PROTOTYPE design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Harihara0309 before reusing the design.
