Well design (many copiers), great quality and reasonable price. F7 for $35. They just released a new board with Dual gyros. I can't tell what "separated interrupts" mean. The other thing that is cool is 8S. Is LOWER kv 8S the new 4S? Polarity protection (first I have heard from an FC) for the human error in us. https://cl-racing.myshopify.com/products...8520208502 Main Features - MCU: STM32F722RET6 216MHz
- DUAL 6-Axis ICM20602 Separated Interrupts
- Build in Beta flight OSD
- Up to 8S(36V) direct battery power
- Build in Voltage monitoring resistor
- Build in 5V/3A BEC and 3.3V/250mA for system
- Led strip share 5V with 5V/3.0A BEC
- 5V OR VBAT, camera and VTX POWER VIA Pit Switch
- 6 Full UARTS: UART1, UART2, UART3, UART4, UART5, UART6
- Build in Camera Control pin with necessary resistor and capacitor
- Buzzer pads for external buzzer
- VBAT Polarity protection
- Build in 32MB Blackbox flash chip
- M4 Can be selected either led strip signal or M4 signal for RPM filtering

Thanks for the explanation. I wonder how the data is going to be implemented. Which signal to push through and which one to ignore? • Posts: 21,274 Threads: 587 Likes Received: 8,970 in 6,638 posts Likes Given: 1,425 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 788 (24-Jul-2019, 08:49 PM)voodoo614 Wrote: I wonder how the data is going to be implemented.

Betaflight 4.x already has built in support to use data from both gyros at the same time (if you want to), as long as they are both of the same type (i.e. MPU6000 or ICM-20601). If each gyro is of a different type then Betaflight can only make use of one of the gyros and you have to specifically select which one of the two gyros to be used. Without actually digging through the source code, I don't know how the data from the two gyros (where they are of the same type) is actually combined, but at a guess it probably takes a mean average of the combined data values from each particular axis and then uses those mean values in any gyro related algorithms. • Posts: 12,099 Threads: 125 Likes Received: 3,739 in 2,836 posts Likes Given: 99 Joined: Feb 2017 Reputation: 388 (24-Jul-2019, 11:33 PM)SnowLeopardFPV Wrote: Betaflight 4.x already has built in support to use data from both gyros at the same time (if you want to), as long as they are both of the same type (i.e. MPU6000 or ICM-20601).

I didn't realize that BF already has codes. Always knew you can pick from different gyro of different type. This is the first FC I encounter with same dual gyros. • Posts: 21,274 Threads: 587 Likes Received: 8,970 in 6,638 posts Likes Given: 1,425 Joined: Jun 2018 Reputation: 788 (25-Jul-2019, 12:12 AM)voodoo614 Wrote: I didn't realize that BF already has codes.

I believe that was the first FC to implement two identical gyros but it seems to now be discontinued (?). • Posts: 1,013 Threads: 11 Likes Received: 452 in 349 posts Likes Given: 372 Joined: Dec 2017 Reputation: 16 (24-Jul-2019, 08:42 PM)Banelle Wrote: I love my F4S. Fingers crossed for an F7 AIO! Yup, been hoping for one from CLracing for a while. Guess I'll keep this in mind for a 4in1 build maybe. Isn't the ICM20602 supposedly more accurate but also more sensitive to vibes? • Posts: 1,312 Threads: 50 Likes Received: 832 in 504 posts Likes Given: 372 Joined: Jul 2018 Reputation: 51 (25-Jul-2019, 02:17 AM)Sugs Wrote: Isn't the ICM20602 supposedly more accurate but also more sensitive to vibes? I seem to remember that it's capable of higher update rates as well, which is kinda redundant since Betaflight ditched 32k gyro loops in 4. The ground is for dead people. • |
