Will be Pixhawk 3 Pro autopilot part of the ArduPilot firmware?

Hardware Pixhawk family
1

Hello together,

At the moment I building a VTOL Quad / Plane with a Pixhawk 3 Pro autopilot.
The autopilot fullfill my requests and it is not so expensive as the Pixhawk 2 Cube.
For the firmware I use the PX4.io projekt.

The next projekt will be a helicopter and therefore the ArduPilot firmware is my favorit.
So I like to ask if the Pixhawk 3 Pro will be also a part of the ArduPilot firmware.

With best regards,
Markus

Hello James,

You are right. Since about one week the price for the PH2.1 Cube drop down a lot.
“Sale” on many shop in the Net.
As I bought the PH3Pro it looks differnt.
For the next projekt I will give the PH2.1 Cube also a chance.

Best regards,
Markus
