About the FlightController H743 PCB
FlightController H743 is an open source STM32 PCB design by nikipoatgit, published on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 47 × 60 mm, with 56 components from 26 distinct parts.
Its main chip is the STM32H743VITx, from the STM32 family. Other key parts include the SPX3819M5-L-3-3, LM7805_TO220, XC6504, ICM42605 and ICM42688. By type, the board carries 24 capacitors, 11 ICs, 11 resistors, 5 diodes, 2 connectors and 1 transistor.
It belongs with the robotics & motion designs in this gallery.
From the project
repo contains flight controller target files, PCB Gerber files, and the schematic.
However custom pin can be used unless their usage is not compromised , STM programmer IDE can be a great help in case assigning pins.

FlightController H743: common questions
What microcontroller does the FlightController H743 use?
The FlightController H743 is built around the STM32H743VITx, from the STM32 family.
How big is the FlightController H743 PCB?
The FlightController H743 measures 47 × 60 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.600198 mm thick.
How many components are on the FlightController H743?
56 components, from 26 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the FlightController H743 design files?
From the nikipoatgit/FlightController_H743 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the FlightController H743 design in my own project?
