# Pixhawk 3 Pro (Discontinued)
:::warning
PX4 does not manufacture this (or any) autopilot.
Contact the [manufacturer](https://store-drotek.com/) for hardware support or compliance issues.
:::
The Pixhawk<sup>&reg;</sup> 3 Pro is based on the FMUv4 hardware design (Pixracer) with some upgrades and additional features.
The board was designed by [Drotek<sup>&reg;</sup>](https://drotek.com) and PX4.

::: info
The main hardware documentation is here: https://drotek.gitbook.io/pixhawk-3-pro/hardware
:::
:::tip
This autopilot is [supported](../flight_controller/autopilot_pixhawk_standard.md) by the PX4 maintenance and test teams.

## Where to buy
No longer available.
## 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-v4pro_default
```
## Debug Port
The board has FMU and IO debug ports as shown below.
![Debug Ports](../../assets/flight_controller/pixhawk3pro/pixhawk3_pro_debug_ports.jpg)
The pinouts and connector comply with the [Pixhawk Debug Mini](../debug/swd_debug.md#pixhawk-debug-mini) interface defined in the [Pixhawk Connector Standard](https://github.com/pixhawk/Pixhawk-Standards/blob/master/DS-009%20Pixhawk%20Connector%20Standard.pdf) (JST SM06B connector).
| Pin | Signal | Volt |
| ------- | ---------------- | ----- |
| 1 (red) | VCC TARGET SHIFT | +3.3V |
| 2 (blk) | CONSOLE TX (OUT) | +3.3V |
| 3 (blk) | CONSOLE RX (IN) | +3.3V |
| 4 (blk) | SWDIO | +3.3V |
| 5 (blk) | SWCLK | +3.3V |
| 6 (blk) | GND | GND |
For information about wiring and using this port see:
- [SWD Debug Port](../debug/swd_debug.md)
- [PX4 System Console](../debug/system_console.md#pixhawk_debug_port) (Note, the FMU console maps to UART7).
## Serial Port Mapping
| UART | Device | Port |
| ------ | ---------- | --------------------- |
| UART1 | /dev/ttyS0 | WiFi |
| USART2 | /dev/ttyS1 | TELEM1 (flow control) |
| USART3 | /dev/ttyS2 | TELEM2 (flow control) |
| UART4 | |
| UART7 | CONSOLE |
| UART8 | SERIAL4 |
