Preconfigured OS image

This is a Raspbian you know with ArduPilot and ROS preinstalled
and ready to run with a couple of simple commands.
Also comes with DroneKit and GStreamer.

Most advanced and full-featured open-source autopilot software. With Navio2 its code is executed directly on Raspberry Pi with preemptive Linux kernel.

6 supported vehicles

Copter, plane, rover, boat, heli and sub

Advanced flight modes

Auto, follow me, guided and others

Waypoint navigation

Full control of missions with multi-platform GCS

A collection of software frameworks for robot software development, providing operating system-like functionality on a heterogeneous computer cluster.

Your ROS application

Program missions

Use ROS or DroneKit to make your drone perform preprogrammed actions and respond to changing conditions.

Stream video

Transfer low-latency video from Raspberry Pi camera module to the ground control station using GStreamer.

Control over the Internet

Plug in 3G/LTE modem to connect to your drone from anywhere in the world and access video and telemetry data.
