Pinout

GOKU GN 745 40A AIO

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 UART1 (TELEM)
SERIAL2 TX2/RX2 UART2 (TELEM)
SERIAL3 TX3/RX3 UART3 (RC Input/Output)
SERIAL4 TX4/RX4 UART4
SERIAL5 TX5/RX5 UART5
SERIAL6 TX6/RX6 UART6 (GPS)
SERIAL7 TX7/RX7 UART7

UART3 supports RX and TX DMA. UART1, UART2, UART4, and UART6 supports TX DMA. UART5 and UART7 do not support DMA.

RC Input

RC input is configured on the UART3, which supports serial RC protocols. This board does not support PPM.

OSD Support

The GOKU GN 745 AIO supports OSD using OSD_TYPE 1 (MAX7456 driver).

PWM Output

The GOKU GN 745 AIO supports up to 8 PWM outputs. The pads for motor output ESC1 to ESC4 on the above diagram are the first 4 outputs, there are four additional pads for PWM 5-8. All 8 outputs support DShot as well as all PWM types.

The PWM are in 5 groups:

PWM 6: Group 1 PWM 1-2 and 7-8: Group 2 LED: Group 3 PWM: Group 4 PWM 3-4: Group 5

Channels within the same group need to use the same output rate. If any channel in a group uses DShot then all channels in the group need to use DShot. PWM 1-4 support bidirectional dshot.

Battery Monitoring

The board has a builtin voltage sensor. The voltage sensor can handle 2S to 6S LiPo batteries.

The correct battery setting parameters are:

  • BATT_MONITOR 4
  • BATT_VOLT_PIN 12
  • BATT_VOLT_MULT around 10.9
  • BATT_CURR_PIN 13
  • BATT_CURR_MULT around 28.5

These are set by default in the firmware and shouldn't need to be adjusted

Compass

The GOKU GN 745 AIO does not have a builtin compass but it does have an external I2C connector.

NeoPixel LED

The board includes a NeoPixel LED pad.

Loading Firmware (you will need to compile your own 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.
