Holybro Pixhawk Jetson Baseboard

Holybro Pixhawk Jetson Baseboard

Baseboard Description

The Holybro Pixhawk Jetson Baseboard is based on the Pixhawk Autopilot Bus open source specification and the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX/Nano Carrier Board. The Pixhawk Autopilot Bus (PAB) Form Factor enables this to be used with any PAB flight controller such as the Pixhawk 6X.
