Autopilot boards compatible with ARDUPILOT

Hello,

Im new into the autopilot world boards. Im want to start a the project of an automated survey vessel to gather information from the sea.

Im at the stage of choosing a compatible board with ARDUPILOT. As far as Ive read, Pixhawk is the most used board to do this, Im struggling to find this at my location (SPAIN) and its a bit pricey.

I was thinking in using the Omnibus F4.

The idea is a simple boat model with a thruster and a rudder behind it. As addons, I was thinking in installing a object avoidance system included in the board.

Ive seen the list on https://ardupilot.org/rover/docs/common-autopilots.html#common-autopilots

I would appreciate any sort of guidance (similar projects, literature…)

Thanks for your time.

All the best,

Pablo

I recommend you to buy Matek H743 slim or mini.
