Shadowfax

FPV Drone designed from scrach. This design isn't fully custom yet but will get there eventually. I started this project to make a cool drone and learn as much as I can about engineering.

Flight Controller

The meat and potatios, the main computer for the drone. Alt text

Transceiver

A low frequency radio to communicate with a remote controller. Alt text

Camera Controller

Controls the camera and captures videos and pictures with a high frequency radio for faster communication. Alt text

Power Board

Powers the whole stack with 3.3v and connects the ESCs to the input voltage. Alt text

Frame

I made a custom frame to fit my custom boards and here it is. Alt text

Questions

How big is the Production pcb PCB?

It measures 82 × 82 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Production pcb use?

210 parts, built around the BMP384, MMC5983MA, LSM6DSV and MAX-M10S. 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 Production pcb KiCad files?

From the someonelse20/Shadowfax repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is production-pcb/production-pcb.kicad_pcb and its schematic ESC/hardware/ESC.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Production pcb design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask someonelse20 before reusing the design.
