JHEMCU GSF405A AIO Flight Controller
The JHEMCU GSF405A is a 1-2S Whoop-style (25.5mm x 25.5mm) flight controller featuring the STM32F405OG6 MCU, 4in1 5A ESCs, BMP280 barometer, 8MB flash, and an on-board ExpressLRS 2.4GHz receiver. The board weighs 3.3g, making it suitable for small or lightweight ArduPilot builds.

Pinout
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.
Name | Pin | Function |
---|---|---|
SERIAL0 | COMPUTER | USB |
SERIAL1 | RX1/TX1 | USART1 (DMA) - Used by the on-board ELRS receiver, but TX1/RX1 pads are also available |
SERIAL2 | TX2/RX2 | USART2 |
SERIAL3 | TX3/RX3 | USART3 (DMA) - GPS, located near I2C pads |
SERIAL4 | TX4/RX4 | UART4 |
SERIAL6 | TX6/RX6 | USART6 (DMA) - Telemetry |
RC Input
RC input is configured on SERIAL1 (USART1) connected to the ELRS receiver, configured for CRSF with SERIAL1_PROTOCOL 23
.
Note A different target is available to should you want to run an external receiver on USART2 (RX2/TX2/SBUS). Note that PPM receivers are not supported as there is no timer resource available for this input.
OSD Support
The GSF405A supports OSD using OSD_TYPE 1 (MAX7456 driver).
Motor Output
The built-in ESC is mapped to motor outputs 1-4. Bidirectional DShot is supported (requires flashing the ESC to a BLHeli_S version that supports bdshot, such as Bluejay [esc-configurator.com]).
Battery Monitoring
The board has a built-in voltage and current sensors.
The correct battery setting parameters are:
- BATT_MONITOR 4
- BATT_VOLT_PIN 11
- BATT_VOLT_SCALE 11
- BATT_CURR_PIN 13
- BATT_CURR_SCALE 17
These are set by default in the firmware and shouldn't need to be adjusted
Compass
The GSF405A does not have a builtin compass, but you can attach an external compass to the I2C pins.
LED
The board includes a LED_STRIP output, which is assigned a timer and DMA. This is the fifth PWM output.
Loading Firmware
Initial firmware load can be done with DFU by plugging in USB with the bootloader button pressed. Then you should load the "with_bl.hex" firmware, using your favourite DFU loading tool.
Once the initial firmware is loaded you can update the firmware using any ArduPilot ground station software. Updates should be done with the *.apj firmware files.
