Pixhawk for RC Jet planes

Posted by anas bin iftikhar on July 25, 2016 at 6:27am

Hi,

Just a small concern. Is it feasible to use pixhawk to autonomously control RC jet plane flying at 300mph?

The goal is simply to take off, fly straight at required altitude for about few miles, RTL and Land. What are the update rates of AHRS and Attitude estimator to correctly have solution ready and also the Navigation loops rate for an aircraft of such speed?
