Pinout

Wiring Diagram

UART Mapping

The UARTs are marked Rn and Tn in the above pinouts. The Rn pin is the receive pin for UARTn. The Tn pin is the transmit pin for UARTn.

SERIAL0 -> USB
SERIAL1 -> USART1 (Serial RC input) (DMA capable)
SERIAL2 -> USART2 (RX tied to inverted SBUS RC input, but can be used as normal UART if :ref:BRD_ALT_CONFIG<> =1)
SERIAL3 -> UART3 (GPS) (TX DMA capable)
SERIAL4 -> UART4 (User) (TX DMA capable)
SERIAL5 -> UART5 (User, available on DJI air unit connector) (TX DMA capable)
SERIAL6 -> UART6 (tied to internal wireless module, MAVLink2 telem)

RC Input

RC input is configured on the SBUS pin (inverted and sent to UART2_RX). It supports all RC protocols except serial protocols such as CRSF, ELRS, etc. Those devices can be connected to USART1 TX and RX, instead. Fport can be connected to USART1 TX also, but will require an external bi-directional inverter and the ref:`SERIAL1_OPTION<SERIAL1_OPTION>' = 4 (HalfDuplex) set.

OSD Support

The SpeedyBeeF405Wing supports using its internal OSD using OSD_TYPE 1 (MAX7456 driver). External OSD support such as DJI or DisplayPort is supported using UART5 or any other free UART5. See :ref:common-msp-osd-overview-4.2 for more info.

PWM Output

The SpeedyBeeF405Wing supports up to 12 PWM outputs (PWM12 is the serial LED output, by default). All outputs support DShot.

The PWM is in 5 groups:

PWM 1,2 in group1
PWM 2,4 in group2
PWM 5-7 in group3
PWM 8-10 in group4
PWM 11,12 in group5 Note: PWM12 is setup for LED use by default, if PWM11 is used, you must re-assign PMW12 to a normal PWM output or nothing

Channels within the same group need to use the same output rate. If any channel in a group uses DShot then all channels in that group would need to use DShot.

Battery Monitoring

The board has a builting voltage and current sensor. The current sensor can read up to 90A continuosly, 215 Amps peak. The voltage sensor can handle up to 6S LiPo batteries.

The correct battery setting parameters are set by default and are:

BATT_MONITOR 4
BATT_VOLT_PIN 10
BATT_CURR_PIN 11
BATT_VOLT_MULT 11.5
BATT_AMP_PERVLT 50

Compass

The SpeedyBeeF405Wing does not have a built-in compass, but you can attach an external compass using I2C on the SDA and SCL pads.

Loading Firmware

Firmware for these boards can be found at https://firmware.ardupilot.org in sub-folders labeled “SpeedyBeeF405Wing”.

Initial firmware load can be done with DFU by plugging in USB with the boot button pressed. Then you should load the "SpeedyBeeF405Wing_bl.hex" firmware, using your favourite DFU loading tool.

Subsequently, you can update firmware with Mission Planner.
