|
|
These are all the hardware files for the OpenPilot CopterControl 3D, as re-manufactured by Spedix. The files
|
|
represent complete schematic designs, and includes all Altium version 9 files. The work is based on the orignal
|
|
CC3D design files located at: https://reviews.openpilot.org/browse/OpenPilot/hardware/Production/CopterControl%203D

this case the OpenPilot logo should be retained at the same size as on the included files on any board produced

|
Spedix has mofified the original design to include new connectors on the board for both Spectrum and S.Bus RX
|
|
packages. This board can easily be identified by the added connectors as well as the Gold ENIG Openpilot logo.
|
|
|
|
This board was orignally shipped alongside the Spedix S250 ARF & BNF kits as sold by BuddyRC.

Additionally the board was sold standalone via BuddyRC. Other vendors may be reselling this board, however there
|
|
is not a known list of potential resellers at this time.

|
|
Please note that the Gyro has been rotated on the board to make access to the USB port easier for end users with
|
|
Mini frames. Pay attention to the arrow when mounting the board. This change eliminates the need for virtual
|
|
rotation of the board within the software.
|
|
|
|
Also note that the first batches of this board shipped with an invalid bootloader. The verison number shows up
|
|
as "-128". This bootloader seems to have timing issues which prevent it from being used with newer variants of
|
|
the OpenPilot GCS. You will have to manually update the bootloader per the following instructions:

|
** Caveats **
|
|
|
|
It has been pointed out by Failsafe(Jim) that the board appears to lack ESD protections.
