### HMF-U580/PixHawk Hexacopter

The HMF U580 Pro is a professional level quadcopter frame that has the unique ability to fold the arms down for easy storage and transportation. The HMF U580 Pro also includes a set of retractable landing gear too, this means that when using a gimbal attached to the anti-vibration mounting booms you can retract your landing gear in flight for a full unobstructed view of the action. The anti-vibration gimbal mounting tubes are also c ompatible with many of the most commonly used gimbals such as Tarot and DYS types. The HMF U580 Pro features precision CNC aluminium m otor mounts with carbon fiber plates designed to absorb any vibrations your motors may p roduce. These motor mounts are also compatible with basically any multirotor motor such as 2212, 2216, 3108, 3110, 3508, 3510, 4108 with 10-15inch propellers. The central plate is designed to be used with many of the popular flight controllers such as APM, Pixhawk, DJI, Zero, and with the PDB central plate, wiring all of the power between your ESC's is a breeze.

The benefits of the Pixhawk Flight Control Unit (FC U) system include integrated multithreading, a Unix/Linux-like programming environment, complete ly new autopilot functions such as sophisticated scripting of missions and flight beha vior, and a custom PX4 driver layer ensuring tight timing across all processes. These advanced c apabilities ensure that there are no limitations to your autonomous vehicle. Pixhawk allows existing APM and PX4 operators to seamlessly transition to this system and lowers the barriers t o entry for new users to participate in the exciting world of autonomous vehicles. The flagship Pixhawk module will be accompanied by new peripheral options, including a digital airspeed sensor, support for an external multi-colo r LED indicator and an external magnetometer. All peripherals are automatically det ected and configured. Note: Pixhawk is a PPM-input autopilot, which means that it gets RC input from a single cable to the receiver, either via the PPM port, the Futab a S.BUS port, or the special satellite receiver port for Spektrum gear. Most modern RC receivers (a nd all those sold by 3D Robotics) allow for PPM output, but some, such as non-S.BUS Futaba rece ivers, do not. If your receiver does not support PPM output, please add a PPM encoder board option to your order below. Pixhawk includes:
