I want to control arduplane control surfaces servos from i2c port in pixhawk cube orange. for that i bought PCA9685 16pin pwm to i2c converter driver.
but i don’t how it will work with pixhawk.
please guide the way for configuration and setup.

It’s not supported and i2c isn’t very reliable. CANBUS is recommended. It will work with a h743 or pixhawk
Can you tell in detail how it will work with pixhawk with can.
I already tried with motors but never with servos.
If you want to control “normal RC servo motors” you need a i2c to PWM converter. Not a PWM to i2c.
And like @geofrancis said the 14 PWM outputs of the Pixhawk or the 2 CAN outputs are much better suited for that application
You are right but the above mentioned board is a i2c to PWM converter.
is this can work with “non can” esc telemetry having having Tx?
yes it supports esc telemetry on the first 4 outputs.
