Great Package, but a Little Expensive

Nov 14, 2017

Everything on the PixFalcon worked beautifully, as did the GPS and PDB. As another reviewer noted, the standard telemetry hardware won't work with the PX4 and you have to purchase the the micro telemetry set separately. Not that big a deal, but it would be nice to know going into it.
Documentation is spotty, which seems to be on par for these products. The GPS functioned exceptionally well. RTL, when activated, would often land the quad withing a foot or so of the actual launch point. And where I am (Florida), the module was typically picking up 22 satellites. Awesome.
My only complaint is the unit is a bit pricey, especially in comparison to other FCs. Still, I give it overall very high marks and I would buy it again if necessary.

Build was nice on this everything worked, and I find the pixhawk documentation adequate. The two major shortcomings here are:
1. There is no input for airspeed, sonar, flow ext.
2. The telemetry output doesn't work with the Standard APM/PX4 style radios, you need the micro telemetry set.

I knew about #1 at purchase time, but not about #2. Be sure to update the firmware when you get it (hard not to do actually)

This is an great replacement flight controller for the full size PixHawk. The M8N GPS locks onto satellites quickly and is better than the 6 and 7 versions. I had so many issues with my two 3DR Pixhawks, this FC works almost flawlessly. I wish it had a second telemetry port, but for small quads, this is perfect. You can connect your gimbal pitch and roll signals to the extra motor outputs. There are 8 outputs for motors and servos. The single cable to the GPS module is nice. I recommend this for 250 to 450 quads.

Awesome, complete system. This was my first APM based flight controller, I've since had a few others and this remains my favorite. Reasonably easy to set up, and it has worked flawlessly from day one. GPS gives rock solid position holds, autonomous flights always on the marks. Everything is high quality - board, cables, etc. Definitely my FC of choice when building a new multirotor. Only thing that could make it better would be a matching 4-in-1 ESC with power module!

No real manual.
Only help scattered around the internet. Internet has mostly questions with no answers.
Error messages and frustration. No fun.
Only for rocket scientists.
Highly disrecommended if you are not into rocket science.

Nice small package for PX4/Pixhawk in smaller applications. Works well on my 3D printed Peon230 after changing the INS_MPU6K_FILTER parameter to value 42. From there you can set the lowest PID settings allowed under basic setup page and start tuning up from there (or use autotune).
