Last updated 1 year ago

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

The Pixhawk® XRacer board family is optimized for small racing quads and planes. In contrast to and it has in-built WiFi, new sensors, convenient full servo headers, CAN and supports 2M flash.

:::tip This autopilot is by the PX4 maintenance and test teams. :::

Key Features

  • Main System-on-Chip:

    • CPU: 180 MHz ARM Cortex® M4 with single-precision FPU

    • RAM: 256 KB SRAM (L1)

  • Standard FPV form factor: 36x36 mm with standard 30.5 mm hole pattern

  • Invensense® ICM-20608 Accel / Gyro (4 KHz) / MPU9250 Accel / Gyro / Mag (4 KHz)

  • HMC5983 magnetometer with temperature compensation

  • Measurement Specialties MS5611 barometer

  • JST GH connectors

  • microSD (logging)

  • Futaba S.BUS and S.BUS2 / Spektrum DSM2 and DSMX / Graupner SUMD / PPM input / Yuneec ST24

  • FrSky® telemetry port

  • OneShot PWM out (configurable)

  • Optional: Safety switch and buzzer

Where to Buy

Accessories include:

Kit

The Pixracer is designed to use a separate avionics power supply. This is necessary to avoid current surges from motors or ESCs to flow back to the flight controller and disturb its delicate sensors.

  • Power module (with voltage and current sensing)

  • I2C splitter (supporting AUAV, Hobbyking and 3DR® peripherals)

  • Cable kit for all common peripherals

Wifi (no USB required)

One of the main features of the board is its ability to use Wifi for flashing new firmware, system setup and in-flight telemetry. This frees it of the need of any desktop system.

:::note Firmware upgrade is not yet enabled over WiFi (it is supported by the default bootloader but not yet enabled). Setup and telemetry are supported. :::

Configuration is otherwise the same as for other boards.

Credits

This design was created by Nick Arsov and Phillip Kocmoud and architected by Lorenz Meier, David Sidrane and Leonard Hall.

Pixracer is available from the .

See the

:::note If using TELEM2 for an external telemetry module you will need to configure it as a MAVLink serial port. For more information see: :::

All connectors follow the . Unless noted otherwise all connectors are JST GH.

The pinouts and connector comply with the interface defined in the (JST SM06B connector).

(Note, the FMU console maps to UART7).

The reference is provided as:

- R14 or RC14 is printed next to the SDCard socket

To for this target:

should be done with USB disconnected. This is always recommended, but is necessary on Pixracer because the USB connection produces particularly large levels of magnetic interference.
