Flight controller v2: common questions
What microcontroller does the Flight controller v2 use?
The Flight controller v2 is built around the ESP-12E, from the ESP8266 family.
How big is the Flight controller v2 PCB?
The Flight controller v2 measures 45 × 89 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 2.035 mm thick.
How many components are on the Flight controller v2?
108 components, from 46 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Flight controller v2 design files?
From the Eryk-Mozdzen/uav-tvc-goose repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Flight controller v2 design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with Eryk-Mozdzen. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Flight controller v2 without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug ESP8266 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
