Hi, everybody. This is a short description of several of the control boards that you can use in multi rotor machines.
1, OpenPilot NANO. The Revolution nano board is a successor to CC3D board listed below is a short description the nano has been extremely difficult to purchase but I have been told that the board will be available in a couple of weeks hoping?.
This release introduces new features and new hardware support for the Revolution Nano. This version also supports the Revolution flight controller as well as the OpenPilot Platinum GPS and OPLinkNew features for multirotors include:
– Fully autonomous flight is now possible with auto-takeoff and landing as flight modes available to path plans.
– An all new implementation of altitude vario provides improved altitude maintenance and smoother flight.
– A new RateTrainer flight mode for beginners and aerial photographers makes it easier to use this mode by limiting the pitch and roll extents.
– A new GPS assisted VelocityRoam flight mode replacing the Position Roam flight mode. This uses AltVario and a velocity controller for smooth GPS guided flight.
• Dimensions
• Case:36.5mm x27mm x 11.5mm.
• PCB: 30mm x16.5mm
• Weight: 7gr (includes case)

3, Pixhawk. The Pixhawk is a fairly new technology with 32-bit processing power and reports around the net seem to be very positive one small problem the unit is fairly large.
Dimensions 81X44X15mm
Pixhawk 1 of 8 you tube video explaining how Pixhawk works.

I don’t have much information about several other control boards if any other member of visitor can supply information on them please do here and it would be very appreciated.
Kind regards, Bob.
