- Standardize .gitignore to match ecosystem template - Fix README: remove stale Radioschematic ref, fix 10V→12V, remove generic sections - Replace LICENSE stub with full CERN-OHL-S-2.0 text - Remove production/ from git tracking (generated, re-exportable) - Untrack generated files: OpenFC.net, replicate_layout.log, ibom, old render Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
OpenFC
Open-source Betaflight flight controller with integrated break-off ELRS receiver, based on the RP2354B microcontroller.
Features
Microcontroller
- RP2354B - Raspberry Pi dual-core ARM Cortex-M33 @ 150MHz (with integrated flash)
Integrated ELRS Receiver (Break-off)
- On-board 2.4GHz ExpressLRS receiver module
- Break-off design allows for different placement if needed
Sensors
- IMU: LSM6DSV16XTR
- Barometer: BMP388
Blackbox Data Logging
- BY25Q128ASWIG - 128Mbit (16MB)
Motor Outputs
- 4x PWM/DShot motor outputs
Analog OSD on PIO
Hardware implementation of opamp and mux to detect syncs and select between white and black pixels. Needs software implementation still.
Connectivity
- USB-C - Configuration and firmware flashing
- UART0 - Serial RX/TX (ELRS connection pads)
- UART1 - Spare serial port
- PIO UART - Software UART via RP2350 PIO (2x)
- I2C - External sensor expansion
- SPI - IMU and Blackbox on isolated bus.
Analog Inputs
- Current sensor input (ADC)
- RSSI input (ADC)
- 1 external available ADC input
Additional Features
- Addressable LED strip output (WS2812/NeoPixel)
- Buzzer output
- 16 LED's built in on corners
- ELRS ESP flashable by the RP2354B (BOOT/EN pins connected)
Power
- 2S-6S batteries
- 12V and 5V regulated outputs, 12V is switchable
