PX4 Autonomy Developer Kit

Air Drones (UAV/UAS)

Description

The ModalAI PX4 Autonomy Developer Kit is an all-in-one autonomy development drone with long-term support for PX4. This SWAP-optimized quadcopter features a 220mm carbon fiber airframe weighing 265g take-off weight with 30+ minutes flight time. It's powered by VOXL 2 companion computer with Qualcomm QRB5165 chipset (8 cores up to 3.091GHz, 8GB LPDDR5) and includes integrated flight controller on DSP. The kit features visual inertial odometry for GPS-denied navigation, visual obstacle avoidance, TFLite neural networks for object classification/detection, 4K hi-res imaging, CV tracking sensors, WiFi and ELRS connectivity, and runs open-source software including PX4, OpenCV, ROS 2, and Docker.
