Holybro Pixhawk 6X-RT Standard Set v2A

The Pixhawk 6X-RT is built around the NXP Semiconductors i.MXRT1176 crossover processor. It features a high-performance 1 GHz Arm Cortex-M7 core for main flight control and a 400 MHz Cortex-M4 core for real-time safety tasks. This dual-core architecture, combined with 2MB of SRAM and 64MB of Flash, provides ample resources for running complex PX4 Autopilot stacks, autonomy algorithms, and high-bandwidth communication protocols simultaneously.

The controller implements triple redundancy by housing three separate IMU chips (BMI088, ICM-42670-P, ICM-42686-P) on independent power and data buses. The flight stack can vote on sensor data or switch to a healthy unit if a failure is detected. The vibration isolation system uses a mechanical damping mount between the main board and the IMU module to filter out high-frequency vibrations from motors and propellers, ensuring cleaner accelerometer and gyroscope readings for stable flight.

The Standard Set includes the core Pixhawk 6X-RT flight controller module, the Pixhawk Standard Baseboard v2A which provides PWM/S.Bus/DSM inputs and actuator outputs, a PM02D HV Power Module for voltage regulation and current sensing, and a necessary cable set. To complete a system, you will need a compatible radio control receiver (e.g., PWM, SBUS, or DSMX), telemetry radios (optional), GPS/Compass module (highly recommended), and your vehicle's motors, ESCs, and propellers.

While the Pixhawk 6X-RT is designed and optimized for the PX4 Autopilot ecosystem, its hardware is based on the open FMUv6X-RT standard. Porting ArduPilot is theoretically possible due to community efforts, but it is not officially supported out-of-the-box. For guaranteed full functionality, including leveraging all redundant sensors and the secure element, using the PX4 firmware is strongly recommended.
