Radxa zero 3w = FC + FPV and mavlink

imagine someone manage to run the ardupilot firmware on a Radxa zero 3w alongside something like openHD ???
Radxa zero 3w + a SPI sensor board Gyro ,accelerometer, barometer, magnetometer + a camera and a decent WiFi adaper like RTL8812BU is 68$ + 50$ for esc and other hardware 115$ for a complete flight controller and HD fpv system on the air …
And the cheapest FC that can run ardupilot well I could found is speedybee F405v3 which is around 79$ only for the FC and esc …

If it is possible can someone help be butter the arducopter developers into working on this ??? :slightly_smiling_face:

The cheapest compatible F405 boards are $20 - $30 US. Anyone paying $80 for a Speedybee F405 is insane.

ArduPilot has also been ported to the ESP32, which would be about an order of magnitude cheaper than any Linux board attempt.

The Navio2 already exists for Raspberry Pi.

Sure, I don’t think it worth that much for above hardware.

F405 + 4IN1(bluejay, bdshot) it’s OK for small drones < 7 inch
