Move PX4 Guide source into /docs (#24490) 
* Add vitepress tree

* Update existing workflows so they dont trigger on changes in the docs path

* Add nojekyll, package.json, LICENCE etc

* Add crowdin docs upload/download scripts

* Add docs flaw checker workflows

* Used docs prefix for docs workflows

* Crowdin obvious fixes

* ci: docs move to self hosted runner

runs on a beefy server for faster builds

Raw Blame History

Pixhack V3

:::warning PX4 does not manufacture this (or any) autopilot. Contact the manufacturer for hardware support or compliance issues. :::

The CUAV Pixhack V3 flight controller board is a flexible autopilot intended primarily for manufacturers of commercial systems.

The board is a variant of the SOLO Pixhawk® 2 (PH2) flight controller, which is in turn based on the Pixhawk-project FMUv3 open hardware design. It runs PX4 on the NuttX OS, and is fully compatible with both PX4 or ArduPilot® (APM) firmware.

Pixhack V3 has significant improvements with respect to the original design, including better interface layout and the addition of vibration damping and a thermostat system.
