Description: O
ur UAV Development Board is back! The UDB5 (UAV Development
Board version 5) comes populated with a dsPIC33FJ256 CPU, and the impressive
MPU-6000, a MEMS 3-axis gyroscope and 3-axis accelerometer. The on-board
Invensense gyro even has enough vibration tolerance to be used in RC heli
applications.
By itself, the board can be used to develop a three axis IMU controller. By addition of
an EM406 or D2523T GPS receiver, it can be used to develop a UAV controller for an
RC car, plane, helicopter, or boat. It comes with self-testing firmware that can serve
as a starting point for you to develop your own control and navigation firmware. There
is even fully functional, open source autopilot firmware available. We’ve made a few
changes with the UDB5, we’ve removed the MMA7361 three axis accelerometer, the
dual axis IDG500 gyro, and the single axis ISZ500 gyro and moved to an MPU-6000.
The PCB form factor hasn’t changed. If you like, you can add a reset button and/or a
0.2F super cap.
Note: For programming, we recommend the PICkit3. Check the related products
