Development Drone for PX4 GPS-Denied Navigation and Obstacle Avoidance - VOXL m500
Development Drone for PX4 GPS-Denied Navigation and Obstacle Avoidance - VOXL m500
Development Drone Built in USA
Develop PX4 autonomous flight quickly with this open and fully programmable bind and fly development drone. Our m500 drone is built from the popular s500 hobby kit and includes a VOXL Flight Deck configured and tested for GPS-based autonomous flight and indoor GPS-denied navigation. Obstacle avoidance stereo cameras come mounted and calibrated. This is a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon reference drone, ready for advanced autonomy development. Our goal with the m500 is to get developers up and running on VOXL quickly, so they can build their next great sUAS applications!
Note: it may take up to 2 weeks before shipping as the product is assembled and tested.
