Pixhawk 3 Pro
The Pixhawk® 3 Pro is based on the FMUv4 hardware design (Pixracer) with some upgrades and additional features. The board was designed by Drotek® and PX4.
The main hardware documentation is here: https://pixhawk.drotek.com/en/
This autopilot is supported by the PX4 maintenance and test teams.
