Overview & Specification

Features

• Fully compatible with Jetson Orin NX/Nano

• Combines the power of Pixhawk & Jetson in a small form factor

• Pixhawk Autopilot Bus (PAB) open source specification

• Jetson & Autopilot are connected via UART, CAN, and Ethernet Switch

Jetson Xaviar NX and Jetson Nano are not compatible.

This baseboard will function as a Jetson Carrier without the Autopilot Flight Controller
