Triple-IMU Redundancy
Three IMUs and dual barometers — a single sensor failure never compromises flight stability.
Flight Controllers
BattleCore FC7
SKU · AAD-FC-7 · H7-Basic V3 (8S)
The flagship autopilot of the AAD stack — STM32H743 with full ArduPilot support, triple-IMU redundancy, dual-payload control, and industrial output protection. Built to keep flying in GPS-denied, EW-contested airspace.
Key Advantage
Keeps flying when comms and GPS are gone — triple sensor redundancy and compass-guided return without yawing the copter, for EW-contested airspace.
Highlights
Core specs and the combat-grade features that set BattleCore FC7 apart.
- STM32H743 · 2MB
- 3× IMU · 2× Baro
- 4–8S (max 34V)
- 6× UART + 2× CAN
- 12× PWM
- ArduPilot
Compass Return Without GPS
Returns home by compass at a set pitch — without yawing the copter — when satellites are jammed or lost.
Ballistic Aiming Assistant
An OSD aiming reticle offset by pitch/roll within the camera FOV, on both analog and digital FPV.
Anti-EW Video Switching
Switches the VTX channel synchronously from a transmitter switch to dodge electronic-warfare video jamming.
