Connections & Ports

This baseboard is compatible with both Pixhawk 5X & 6X, and any flight controller that follows the Pixhawk Bus Standard.

This baseboard is compatible with both Raspberry Pi CM4 and CM5 modules. The CM4 USB and Ethernet port names match the silk print on the baseboard's case.

Connection Between RPi CM4/5 & Flight Controller:

FC Module is internally connected to the RPi CM4/5 through TELEM2

  • CM4/5 GPIO14 <-> FMU TXD TELEM2

  • CM4/5 GPIO15 <-> FMU RXD TELEM2

  • CM4/5 GPIO16 <-> FMU CTS TELEM2

  • CM4/5 GPIO17 <-> FMU RTS TELEM2

CM4 Slave USB-C port:

CM4/5 USB Device Port. Use for CM4/5 Power and image flash. Max input voltage: 5V

CM4 Host1 & Host2 USB-C Port:

CM4/5 USB Host port. 1A Current output limit for each port.
