Where to get the code Working repository for Navio APM port is on our GitHub. Changes are being pushed in the main ArduPilot repository after some time. Hot to build You can build APM directly on your Raspberry Pi, it will take approximately 15 minutes. For faster build environment it’s better to use cross-compiling on Linux PC or […]

Raspberry Pi provides a set of peripheral interfaces which can be used to connect additional hardware. Navio provides access to these interfaces on it’s ports. Even though the set of interfaces is limited, it is possible to add more by using USB adapters. This guide demonstrates how different hardware can be connected to Navio and […]

This document is not updated, please proceed to docs.blog.emlid.com for latest version! It is possible to run APM (ArduPilot) on Raspberry Pi with Navio. The autopilot’s code works directly on Raspberry Pi using the APM’s Linux HAL. Even though it is possible to run APM on standard Raspbian distribution it won’t work properly as it requires lower latency. Please […]

Linux kernel has configuration options that affect it’s real-time capabilities. Default Raspbian kernel is compiled with CONFIG_PREEMPT option that allows all kernel code outside of spinlock-protected regions and interrupt handlers to be preempted by higher priority kernel threads. Real-time patch from Ingo Molnar adds CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT option that allows nearly all of the kernel code to be preempted, […]

Hey guys! We made a small demo of IMU with NAVIO to show real-time performance of the platform. The algorithm is Mahony quaternion based. The sensor is MPU9150 connected over I2C.

We’ve just received a new batch of Navio release candidate PCBs in matte black – this way they look even better. Changes to the board include: MPU9250 connected over SPI. Support of separate power inputs for RPi and Navio – to keep RPi safe from voltage drops on high loads. Extended compatibility with Pixhawk headers. 3.3V […]

We’ve just shipped first developer prototypes to Team Prometheus and Aerial Vista Team. We hope that you’ll have fun developing with Navio and we are looking forward to getting feedback from you.

Today first five Navio were born, took me almost 6 hours to solder, but it was totally worth it and I even enjoyed soldering QFN’s. There was a delay with delivery of right angle servo connectors, and first prototypes received straight headers. Some chips were tricky to solder and we had to reflow them twice, […]

The PCB’s are here! Beautiful immersion gold and black solder mask, we will solder the first boards with hot air. All connectors and mounting holes are in the right places, thanks to 3D design. The parts have arrived several days ago, and we cant wait to see assembled board in action.

We love Raspberry PI, but it always appeared unfair to us that autopilot applications were limited on the platform. Lack of servo connectivity, sensors breakout boards had to hang on wires creating one big mess. DIY Autopilots were evolving for a long time starting from 8-bit Arduino/pic platforms and coming to 32-bit ARM microprocessors, but […]
