From the project

Custom 42x42mm 4-layer STM32F722 FPV flight controller for 5in and 7in cinematic and telemetry quads.

Vayu (वायु) is the Sanskrit word for wind.

This is a 42 × 42 mm, four-layer FPV flight controller built around the STM32F722 for 5-inch and 7-inch quads doing cinematic, telemetry, and general performance work. It is designed to sit in the same class as well-known F722 boards while adding a cleaner power layout, a proper barometer, and a 10 V rail sized for an HD VTX or analogue system.

Vayu-F722: common questions

What microcontroller does the Vayu-F722 use?

The Vayu-F722 is built around the STM32F722RET6, from the STM32 family.

How big is the Vayu-F722 PCB?

The Vayu-F722 measures 42 × 42 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Vayu-F722?
