NxtPX4v2 33A Bluejay Stack

Description:

The NxtPX4v2 is an open-source hardware designed and maintained by HKUST Aerial Robotics Group and produced by MicoAir Tech. The NxtPX4v2 flight controller has been officially merged into the PX4 mainline under the board target name “hkust_nxt-dual”. You can find all open-source resources related to this flight controller on the HKUST Aerial Robotics Group GitHub, including hardware designs, firmware, tutorials, and reproducible research cases that other developers and researchers can reference.

Key features:

• Research-focused, Open Hardware — Designed and maintained by HKUST Aerial Robotics Group for lab research, teaching, and algorithm validation.
• High-quality IMU data for VIO & perception — Dual BMI088 high-precision IMUs deliver superior data for Visual-Inertial Odometry (VIO) and perception algorithms.
• Extensive expansion & compatibility — 7x UART, 8x PWM, I2C, SPI and more enable easy integration with GPS, optical flow, O3 transmission, Raspberry Pi onboard computers, LiDAR, 3D cameras, and other research peripherals.
• Compact & lightweight — Standard 20×20 mm mounting holes, small footprint and low weight for micro UAV platforms and experimental rigs.
• Optional integrated ESC — Bluejay 4-in-1 ESC variant provides a compact, high-response power solution for small platforms.
