Pre-release

This is the first MacroFab produced F3FC and was a release candidate for the first production run. v7 wasn't committed so its release notes are here too.

Changes:
v8

  • Switch to oval holes for USB.
  • Add arrow to mark orientation.
  • Switch from FlightStack to Polystack.

v7

  • Flip p-fet so source is Vdd.
  • Add OSHW logo.
  • Use thin FlightStack logo.
  • Move 3.5mm label slightly lower.
  • Add ground pad near 5v pad.

v6 Pre-release
Pre-release
  • Route USB as a differential pair.
  • Use a p-channel MOSFET for high side switching of BOOT0 to fix reset circuit.
  • Add fiducials.
  • Match led numbering to reference.
  • Support current sensor with ADC.

v5 Pre-release
Pre-release
  • Remove battery voltage divider because its now done by the power board.
  • Switch to MPU-6000 based on @MotoLab's argument for it.
  • Move SWCLK out of single timers and into GPIO because the F4 pin doesn't have a timer.
  • Don't put anything directly below the MPU.
  • Move motor output pins towards the center a little bit for better clearance against the spacer.

v4 Pre-release
Pre-release

Changes:

  • Move decoupling caps to the front side of the board next to the MCU. Thanks to @tracernz for the explanation.
  • Re-add the MPU because Cleanflight doesn't fully boot without a gyro.
  • Switch from a crystal to a resonator which contains the loading capacitors internally. Thanks to @kc10kevin for the info.

v1 Pre-release
Pre-release

Initial prototype of the F3 Flight Control board. It features an STM32F303, MPU-6500 and high density 80-pin DF40. This version was never tested because v2 was created soon after.
