Holybro Pixhawk 6C with Plastic Case, PM02 V3 Power Module, No GPS
by Holybro

Deploy next-generation processing and advanced open-source navigation with the Holybro Pixhawk 6C Flight Controller kit, bundled here with a lightweight plastic enclosure and the heavy-duty PM02 V3 12S Power Module. Shipped as a standalone control core without a GPS module, this bundle serves as an exceptionally flexible, open-architecture foundation for commercial drone customizers, tactical aerospace contractors, and academic research groups who prefer to supply their own specialized GNSS sensors. The autopilot is driven by the state-of-the-art STM32H743 32-bit Arm Cortex-M7 primary processor operating at a blazing 480MHz, equipped with 2MB flash memory and 1MB SRAM to manage complex autonomous algorithms effortlessly. This processing core works side-by-side with an independent STM32F103 I/O co-processor. Together, they manage an internal, vibration-isolated sensor array containing dual redundant IMUs (the ICM-42688-P and BMI088), an IST8310 magnetometer, and an industrial-grade MS5611 barometer, ensuring clean signal noise filtering and rock-solid state estimation.

The hardware layout provides rich expansion capabilities and reliable electrical protection for large-scale multirotors, autonomous rovers, and long-range fixed-wing aircraft. The Pixhawk 6C offers 16 individual PWM servo outputs—split between the main I/O board and flight management unit—featuring hardware-switchable 3.3V or 5V logic signal levels to guarantee compatibility with high-voltage industrial servos and DShot electronic speed controllers. The included PM02 V3 Analog Power Module simplifies your power delivery network by regulating inputs from high-voltage 2S to 12S LiPo battery systems down to a clean, stable 5.2V DC output at up to 3A. Connecting directly via a 6-pin JST-GH cable, it streams accurate analog telemetry for voltage drop and live current consumption (up to 120A sensing limits) straight to the flight controller. Enclosed in a compact 34.6-gram plastic case, this flight control bundle is fully optimized for the latest stable releases of both the PX4 Autopilot and ArduPilot ecosystems, offering robust dependability for autonomous mapping platforms, delivery sUAS, and industrial field automation.

Operational Integration Note: The PM02 V3 Power Module utilizes traditional analog data outputs. While it works flawlessly with the Pixhawk 6C series out of the box, it is not natively compatible with legacy digital-only power interfaces found on select alternative flight controller sub-architectures without external signal converters.
