:::warning PX4 does not manufacture this (or any) autopilot. Contact the for hardware support or compliance issues. :::

The flight controller is intended for lightweight frame builds (such as racers, etc.).

This flight controller is full of features including HD camera plug, dual plug-and-play 4in1 ESC ports, VTX ON/OFF Pit Switch (Battery Voltage), barometer, OSD, 6x UARTs, 128MB Flash for logging (not supported with PX4 yet), 5V BEC, and bigger soldering pad with easy layout and much more.

The Kakute H7 mini builds upon the best features of its predecessor, the , and the . The board also has an on-board barometer, LED & buzzer pad, and I2C pad (SDA & SCL) for external GPS/magnetometers.

:::note PX4 runs on the H7 mini v1.3 and later. :::

Key Features

  • MCU: STM32H743 32-bit processor running at 480 MHz

  • IMU: BMI270

  • Barometer: BMP280

  • OSD: AT7456E

  • 6x UARTs (1,2,3,4,6,7)

  • VTX On/Off Pit Switch: Not used with PX4

  • 9x PWM Outputs (8 Motor Outputs, 1 LED)

  • 2x JST-SH1.0_8pin port (For Single or 4in1 ESCs, x8/Octocopter plug & play compatible)

  • 1x JST-GH1.5_6pin port (For HD System like Caddx Vista & Air Unit)

  • Battery input voltage: 2S-6S

  • BEC 5V 2A Cont.

  • Mounting: 20 x 20mm/Φ3.6mm hole with M3 & M2 Grommets

  • Dimensions: 30x31x6mm

  • Weight: 5.5g

Installing PX4 Firmware

:::note KakuteH7 is supported with PX4 master & PX4 v1.13 or newer. If you are loading the pre-built firmware via QGroundcontrol, you must use QGC Daily or QGC version newer than 4.1.7. Prior to that release you will need to manually build and install the firmware. :::

Firmware can be manually installed in any of the normal ways:

  • Build and upload the source:

    make holybro_kakuteh7mini_default upload

:::note KakuteH7mini is supported with PX4 main and v1.14 or newer. :::
