From the project
A fully open-source, custom-designed 4-in-1 ESC and F7 Flight Controller stack for FPV multirotors, designed from scratch in KiCad.
The VENDETTA stack consists of two boards designed to work together as a matched pair, built around modern components and open firmware with no proprietary dependencies.
A 30×30mm 4-in-1 ESC (25A x 4) designed for 3–6S FPV multirotors.
A 30×30mm F7 Flight Controller targeting feature parity with commercial boards like the SpeedyBee F7 V3, with improvements in IMU performance and power isolation.

VENDETTAFC: common questions
What microcontroller does the VENDETTAFC use?
The VENDETTAFC is built around the ESP32-C3, from the ESP32 family.
How big is the VENDETTAFC PCB?
The VENDETTAFC measures 43.6 × 43 mm, has 6 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the VENDETTAFC?
129 components, from 59 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 VENDETTAFC design files?
From the Caped-Crussader/VENDETTAFC 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 VENDETTAFC design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its CERN-OHL-S-2.0 license, which Caped-Crussader chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the VENDETTAFC without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP32 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
