Description
Cube Black+ - Contrôleur de vol Open Source
New: Cube Orange with more powerful processor is now available.
The Cube Black plus (Pixhawk 2.1) is a slightly modified version of the Cube Black.
More than a simple flight controller, Cube is a solution suitable for countless unmanned systems including multirotor drones, planes, helicopters, VTOL aircrafts, boats, cars, uboats, etc.
THE CUBE
The most important improvements of this second Pixhawk version can be found in the CUBE.
Indeed, it embeds quality technological modules offering several features like a high performance IMU. The CUBE embeds a triple redundant IMU that is isolated, dampened and includes a heating system. Thanks to that, the Pixhawk 2 is a controller suitable for operations below freezing point.
In addition to that, the CUBE is connected to the carrier board with just a DF17 connector. This means it is a modular system.
