About the Stm32-flight controller PCB

Stm32-flight controller is an open source STM32 PCB design by bachaaymene, published on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board measuring 59 × 59 mm, with 58 components from 31 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the STM32F405RGTX, from the STM32 family. Other key parts include the AP63205WU, TLV70233_SOT23-5, USBLC6-2SC6 and LPS22HB. By type, the board carries 25 capacitors, 11 resistors, 9 connectors, 5 ICs, 3 diodes and 2 inductors.

It belongs with the robotics & motion, power & battery and sensors designs in this gallery.

From the project

Custom 4-layer flight controller PCB for an F450 quadcopter. STM32F405, LSM6DSO IMU, LPS22HB barometer, USB-C. Designed in KiCad.

A 4-layer flight controller board for an F450 quadcopter frame, based on the STM32F405RGT6. Designed in KiCad 10 by SparkLab DZ.

Full schematic as PDF: post/flight_controller.pdf

Requirements: KiCad 10.0 or newer. Older versions cannot open these files.

The repository uses Git LFS for large files, so install it before cloning:

Then open flightcontroller.kicadpro in KiCad.

Stm32-flight controller design files

The KiCad project lives in the bachaaymene/stm32-flight-controller repository on GitHub; these links point at the commit this page was built from.

Stm32-flight controller: common questions

What microcontroller does the Stm32-flight controller use?

The Stm32-flight controller is built around the STM32F405RGTX, from the STM32 family.

How big is the Stm32-flight controller PCB?

The Stm32-flight controller measures 59 × 59 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.42 mm thick.

How many components are on the Stm32-flight controller?

58 components, from 31 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 Stm32-flight controller design files?

From the bachaaymene/stm32-flight-controller 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 Stm32-flight controller design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with bachaaymene. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Stm32-flight controller 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.
