# CUAV V5+ Autopilot
|
||
|
||
:::warning
|
||
PX4 does not manufacture this (or any) autopilot.
|
||
Contact the [manufacturer](https://store.cuav.net/) for hardware support or compliance issues.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
_V5+_<sup>®</sup> is an advanced autopilot manufactured by CUAV<sup>®</sup>.
|
||
It was designed by CUAV<sup>®</sup> in collaboration with the PX4 team.
|
||
|
||
The autopilot is recommended for commercial systems integration, but is also suitable for academic research and any other use.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
Some of its main features include:
|
||
|
||
- Full compatibility with the [Pixhawk project](https://pixhawk.org/) **FMUv5** design standard and uses the [Pixhawk Connector Standard](https://github.com/pixhawk/Pixhawk-Standards/blob/master/DS-009%20Pixhawk%20Connector%20Standard.pdf) for all external interfaces.
|
||
- More advanced processor, RAM and flash memory than FMU v3, along with more stable and reliable sensors.
|
||
- Firmware-compatible with PX4.
|
||
- Modular design allows users to customize their own carrier board.
|
||
- Built-in vibration dampening system with high performance shock absorption system.
|
||
- Multiple-redundant sensor and power systems for improved flight safety and stability.

## Connections (Wiring)
|
||
|
||
[CUAV V5+ Wiring Quickstart](../assembly/quick_start_cuav_v5_plus.md)
|
||
|
||
## Pinouts
|
||
|
||
Download **V5+** pinouts from [here](http://manual.cuav.net/V5-Plus.pdf).
|
||
|
||
## Voltage Ratings
|
||
|
||
_V5+ AutoPilot_ supports redundant power supplies - up to three sources may be used: `Power1`, `Power2` and `USB`.
|
||
You must supply power to at least one of these sources, or the flight controller will be unpowered.
|
||
|
||
::: info
|
||
On FMUv5 based FMUs with PX4IO module (as is the case for the _V5+_), the Servo Power Rail is only monitored by the FMU.
|
||
It is neither powered by, nor provides power to the FMU.
|
||
However, the pins marked **+** are all common, and a BEC may be connected to any of the servo pin sets to power the servo power rail.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
**Normal Operation Maximum Ratings**
|
||
|
||
Under these conditions all power sources will be used in this order to power the system:
|
||
|
||
1. `Power1` and `Power2` inputs (4.3V to 5.4V)
|
||
1. `USB` input (4.75V to 5.25V)
|
||
|
||
## Over Current Protection
|
||
|
||
The _V5+_ has over current protection on the 5 Volt Peripheral and 5 Volt high power, which limits the current to 2.5A.
|
||
The _V5+_ has short circuit protection.
|
||
|
||
:::warning
|
||
Up to 2.5 A can be delivered to the connectors listed as pin 1 (although these are only rated at 1 A).
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
## Building Firmware
|
||
|
||
:::tip
|
||
Most users will not need to build this firmware!
|
||
It is pre-built and automatically installed by _QGroundControl_ when appropriate hardware is connected.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
To [build PX4](../dev_setup/building_px4.md) for this target:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
make px4_fmu-v5_default
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Debug Port
|
||
|
||
The [PX4 System Console](../debug/system_console.md) and [SWD interface](../debug/swd_debug.md) operate on the **FMU Debug** port (`DSU7`).
|
||
The board does not have an I/O debug interface.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
The debug port (`DSU7`) uses a [JST BM06B](https://www.digikey.com.au/en/products/detail/jst-sales-america-inc/BM06B-GHS-TBT-LF-SN-N/807850) connector and has the following pinout:
|
||
|
||
| Pin | Signal | Volt |
|
||
| ------- | -------------- | ----- |
|
||
| 1 (red) | 5V+ | +5V |
|
||
| 2 (blk) | DEBUG TX (OUT) | +3.3V |
|
||
| 3 (blk) | DEBUG RX (IN) | +3.3V |
|
||
| 4 (blk) | FMU_SWDIO | +3.3V |
|
||
| 5 (blk) | FMU_SWCLK | +3.3V |
|
||
| 6 (blk) | GND | GND |
|
||
|
||
The product package includes a convenient debug cable that can be connected to the `DSU7` port.
|
||
This splits out an FTDI cable for connecting the [PX4 System Console](../debug/system_console.md) to a computer USB port, and SWD pins used for SWD/JTAG debugging.
|
||
The provided debug cable does not connect to the SWD port `Vref` pin (1).
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
:::warning
|
||
The SWD Vref pin (1) uses 5V as Vref but the CPU is run at 3.3V!
|
||
|
||
Some JTAG adapters (SEGGER J-Link) will use the Vref voltage to set the voltage on the SWD lines.
|
||
For direct connection to _Segger Jlink_ we recommended you use the 3.3 Volts from pin 4 of the connector marked `DSM`/`SBUS`/`RSSI` to provide `Vtref` to the JTAG (i.e. providing 3.3V and _NOT_ 5V).
|
||
|
||
For more information see [Using JTAG for hardware debugging](#using-jtag-for-hardware-debugging).

## Peripherals
|
||
|
||
- [Digital Airspeed Sensor](https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.3-c-s.w4002-16371268452.37.6d9f48afsFgGZI&id=9512463037)
|
||
- [Telemetry Radio Modules](https://cuav.taobao.com/category-158480951.htm?spm=2013.1.w5002-16371268426.4.410b7a821qYbBq&search=y&catName=%CA%FD%B4%AB%B5%E7%CC%A8)
|
||
- [Rangefinders/Distance sensors](../sensor/rangefinders.md)
|
||
|
||
## Supported Platforms / Airframes
|
||
|
||
Any multicopter / airplane / rover or boat that can be controlled with normal RC servos or Futaba S-Bus servos.
|
||
The complete set of supported configurations can be seen in the [Airframes Reference](../airframes/airframe_reference.md).
|
||
|
||
## Notes
|
||
|
||
#### Do not plug Digital or Analog PM onto connectors configured for other type of PM
|
||
|
||
If you plug an Analog PM into a digital PM connector it will stop all the I2C devices on that bus.
|
||
Specifically this will stop the GPS's compass due to contention, and may also damage the FMU (longer term).
|
||
|
||
Similarly, a digital PM plugged into a analog connector will not work, and may also damage/destroy the power module (longer term).
|
||
|
||
## Compatibility
|
||
|
||
CUAV adopts some differentiated designs and is incompatible with some hardware, which will be described below.
|
||
|
||
<a id="compatibility_gps"></a>
|
||
|
||
#### GPS not compatible with other devices
|
||
|
||
The _Neo v2.0 GPS_ recommended for use with _CUAV V5+_ and _CUAV V5 nano_ is not fully compatible with other Pixhawk flight controllers (specifically, the buzzer part is not compatible and there may be issues with the safety switch).
|
||
|
||
The UAVCAN [NEO V2 PRO GNSS receiver](https://doc.cuav.net/gps/neo-series-gnss/en/neo-v2-pro.html) can also be used, and is compatible with other flight controllers.
|
||
|
||
<a id="compatibility_jtag"></a>
|
||
|
||
#### Using JTAG for hardware debugging
|
||
|
||
`DSU7` FMU Debug Pin 1 is 5 volts - not the 3.3 volts of the CPU.
|
||
|
||
Some JTAG use this voltage to set the IO levels when communicating to the target.
|
||
|
||
For direct connection to _Segger Jlink_ we recommended you use the 3.3 Volts of DSM/SBUS/RSSI pin 4 as Pin 1 on the debug connector (`Vtref`).
|
||
|
||
## Known Issues
|
||
|
||
The issues below refer to the _batch number_ in which they first appear.
|
||
The batch number is the four-digit production date behind V01 and is displayed on a sticker on the side of the flight controller.
|
||
For example, the serial number Batch V011904((V01 is the number of V5, 1904 is the production date, that is, the batch number).
|
||
|
||
<a id="pin1_unfused"></a>
|
||
|
||
#### SBUS / DSM / RSSI interface Pin1 unfused
|
||
|
||
:::warning
|
||
This is a safety issue.
|
||
:::
|
||
|
||
Please do not connect other equipment (except RC receiver) on SBUS / DSM / RSSI interface - this may lead to equipment damage.
|
||
|
||
- _Found:_ Batches V01190904xxxx
|
||
- _Fixed:_ Batches later than V01190904xxxx
