Flight data recorder: common questions

What microcontroller does the Flight data recorder use?

The Flight data recorder is built around the STM32F411CEU6, from the STM32 family.

How big is the Flight data recorder PCB?

The Flight data recorder measures 57 × 27 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Flight data recorder?

47 components, from 30 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Flight data recorder design files?

From the alexdortiz/flight-data-recorder repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Flight data recorder design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which alexdortiz chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Flight data recorder without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug STM32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
