Questions
How big is the FlightBit PCB?
It measures 40 × 40 mm and has 4 copper layers, 4.69 mm thick.
What parts does the FlightBit use?
64 parts, built around the MP1584EN, MPU-6050 and SS34. 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 FlightBit KiCad files?
From the sceric/ElectronicTheory repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Projects/FlightBit/FlightBit.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the FlightBit design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask sceric before reusing the design.
