Ardupilot on OpenPilot Revolution

This is a fork of Ardupilot for OpenPilot Revolution/RevoMini boards and derived family of flight controllers. It contain an HAL written from scratch for the following boards:

  • OpenPilot Revolution / RevoMini (target revomini_MP32V1F4)
  • Airbot F4 (target revomini_airbot)
  • Omnibus F4 V2 Pro (target revomini_airbotV2)

How to flash: https://github.com/night-ghost/ardupilot/wiki/Flash-firmware

Once the firmware is flashed the various parameters can be configured using a GCS from the Ardupilot project:

Other then the Ardupilot parameters there are HAL parameters specific for this HAL.

OpenPilot Revolution / RevoMini

Revo Ports

Main differences between Revolution and RevoMini are:

  • lack of radio link in the RevoMini (anyway this HAL don't use it)
  • Flexi-IO aka RC Input has 10 pin on Revolution and 8 pin on RevoMini

RC Input on Revolution

  1. Ground
  2. +5V
  3. NA (PB12, pin 2. Can be used as relay pin)
  4. NA (PB13, pin 3. Can be used as relay pin)
  5. PPM/SBUS/DSM Input 1
  6. PPM/SBUS/DSM Input 2 or Servo7 - see HAL_SERVO_MASK parameter
  7. UART6 TX (SERIAL3 as Ardupilot Parameter) or Servo8
  8. UART6 RX or Servo9
  9. SCL external I2C, Tx SoftSerial if I2C moved to FlexiPort or Servo10
  10. SDA external I2C, Rx SoftSerial if I2C moved to FlexiPort or Servo11

RC Input on RevoMini

  1. Ground
  2. +5V
  3. PPM/SBUS/DSM Input 1
  4. PPM/SBUS/DSM Input 2
  5. UART6 TX (SERIAL3 as Ardupilot Parameter)
  6. UART6 RX
  7. SCL external I2C, Tx SoftSerial if I2C moved to FlexiPort
  8. SDA external I2C, Rx SoftSerial if I2C moved to FlexiPort
