for drones

The Piccolo™ SL autopilots provide a complete integrated avionics solution that includes the flight control processor, inertial sensors, ported air data sensors, GPS receiver and datalink radio. Piccolo SL uses the same firmware and software as other Piccolo autopilots. The Piccolo SL with its thin form factor and flexible I/O capability is ideal for small fixed wing and VTOL applications. Features Thin form factor for small handlaunch and VTOL configurations Flexible I/O support (14 configurable GPIO lines) Onboard inertial, air data, and GPS sensors, datalink radio, and EMI shielded enclosure Supports operation of a wide variety of UAV’s in both fixed wing or VTOL configurations Both Software and Hardware in the Loop (SWIL / HWIL) simulation modes for pre-flight testing Plug and play support of peripherals including TASE payloads, servo based pantilt cameras, transponders,magnetometers, Iridium satcomm, RTK GPS receivers, laser altimeters and flight termination Portable integrated ground station capable of managing the wireless link to multiple Piccolo avionics Applications Fixed wing Hybrid Multi-rotor Helicopter Multi-rotor
