Kakute F7
Overview
The Holybro Kakute F7 flight controller makes it easy to build your multirotor. It integrates flight
controller (FC) and on-screen display (OSD) in one. The Kakute F7’s layout makes it easy to wire up the
other components of the multirotor while keeping the build neat and tidy.
Features
•
Supports Betaflight, Butterflight, and Cleanflight.
•
Betaflight OSD. Change PIDs, adjust common configuration parameters, and change video
transmitter channel and power level, all using your transmitter sticks and goggles.
•
Soft-mounting built in. The IMU (“gyro”) chip on this board is mounted on vibration-isolating
foam. This means that there is no need to soft-mount the board itself.
•
High-performance / low-noise / high sensitivity IMU. ICM20689 with 6-axis gyro and
accelerometer. Can run at up to 32 kHz sampling rate.
•
Ready for autonomous flight: Integrated BMP280 barometer and SCL/SDA pads for use with
external GPS/magnetometer units.
•
2 oz. copper PCB allows up to 120A maximum continuous current.
•
Dedicated bootloader button for easy firmware flashing.
•
Low-profile design fits into even very compact frames.
•
Input voltage 7v to 42v. Power the board directly from the flight pack, up to 6S (on “B+” pad
only).
•
Automatic voltage monitoring. No need to run a separate vBat wire for voltage monitoring; the
Kakute F7 monitors voltage directly from the power supply.
•
Filtered voltage output for clean, noise-free video. On-board regulators output 5v at up to 2
amps and 3.3v at up to 200 mA to power peripherals such as receiver, video transmitter, FPV
camera, or LED strip.
•
Supports BLHeli pass-through for easy ESC upgrade and configuration.
