Pixhawk vs Pixhawk 2?

Posted by Rich B on May 15, 2015 at 9:37am

Can someone tell me the differences between a Pixhawk and the Pixhawk 2 that 3DR is marketing as being supplied with the Solo?

 

I've tried searching, but only found vague references to Pixhawk 2.

Even the 3DR web site is very light with info about Pixhawk 2.

Perhaps the info is being kept quiet until the final release? If so, that's ok, just let us know.


Thanks!

Rich

          Wow. Complete redesign -- they didn't recycle anything.

          Hi Gary!
          I'm eager to see more detailed pictures of Pixhawk 2 and its dimensions,
          Would it be possible?

          Boy they do have a lot of stuff in there.

          I look forward to a more detailed explanation.

          Although I am sure they are concentrating their efforts on getting the Solo to work optimally for now.

          Best Regards,

          Gary

      Why so late?!

    I think one of the 1ghz computers is in the TX controller?

    Are the HD video capabilities physically separate from Pixhawk 2? Or is everything (flight controller, video link, control) integrated together in Solo / PX2?

    • Johnatan > Jonathan Hair June 19, 2015 at 7:29am

      Pixhawk 2 has just 168Mhz CPU and 256KB of ram so it can not have video link and etc integrated. There is a second more powerful single board computer for this purpose.

        I wonder if 3DR is willing to sell this system. HD video link for cheap(er) would be great!

        • Johnatan > Jonathan Hair June 19, 2015 at 9:33am

          Or even if they publish it as open source which I doubt!
