1 • Description
The Data Logger is the computing device aimed to be mounted onto the UAV allowing to
integrate various types of payloads. It connects to the flight controller from the one side and
to payloads from the other.
Data Logger functions:
• Getting data from a payload
• Getting flight parameters from a flight controller
• Information converting and recording in a format useful for processing and analysis
• Implementing custom flight control algorithms
• Additional UAV diagnostics
Features
• Fully isolated and ESD-protected
external interfaces
• Reliable and convenient connectors
with lock, ideal for airborne applications
• 12 V power output with switch-off
function for payload connecting
• Two UART and one I²C interfaces
• Protection against input power’s
inverse polarity
• Extended operating temperature range
from −25°C to +85°C
Applications
• Custom payload integration with drone
• Advanced UAV flight control scenarios
• Using drones in adverse environment
