UART Mapping

  • SERIAL0 -> USB (OTG1)
  • SERIAL1 -> USART1 (Telem1)
  • SERIAL2 -> USART6 (Telem2)
  • SERIAL3 -> USART3 (GPS1), NODMA
  • SERIAL4 -> USART2 (GPS2), NODMA
  • SERIAL5 -> UART8 (SBUS)
  • SERIAL6 -> UART7 (Debug), NODMA
  • SERIAL7 -> USB2 (OTG2)

RC Input

The remote control signal should be connected to the “RC IN” pin, at one side of the servo channels.

This signal pin supports two types of remote control signal inputs, SBUS and PPM signals.

PWM Output

The A6SE supports up to 11 PWM outputs,support all PWM protocols as well as DShot. All 11 PWM outputs have GND on the bottom row, 5V on the middle row and signal on the top row.

The 11 PWM outputs are in 4 groups:

  • PWM 1, 2, 3 and 4 in group1
  • PWM 5, 6, 7 and 8 in group2
  • PWM 9, 10, 11 in group3

Channels 1-8 support bi-directional Dshot. 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 need to use DShot.

GPIOs

All 11 PWM channels can be used for GPIO functions (relays, buttons, RPM etc).

The pin numbers for these PWM channels in ArduPilot are shown below:

PWM Channels Pin PWM Channels Pin
PWM1 50 PWM8 57
PWM2 51 PWM9 58
PWM3 52 PWM10 59
PWM4 53 PWM11 60
PWM5 54
PWM6 55
PWM7 56

Analog inputs

The A6SE flight controller has 5 analog inputs

  • ADC Pin4 -> Battery Current
  • ADC Pin12 -> Battery Voltage
  • ADC Pin8 -> ADC 3V3 Sense
  • ADC Pin10 -> ADC 6V6 Sense
  • ADC Pin11 -> RSSI voltage monitoring

Build the FC

./waf configure --board=YJUAV_A6SE ./waf copter

The compiled firmware is located in folder "build/YJUAV_A6SE/bin/arducopter.apj".

Loading Firmware

The A6SE flight controller comes pre-installed with an ArduPilot compatible bootloader, allowing the loading of *.apj firmware files with any ArduPilot compatible ground station.
