About

About ARKV6X Extended Range Flight Controller

ARKV6X Extended Range is an FMUv6X flight controller with three IIM-42653 inertial sensors designed for vibration and high-dynamic operation. The board follows the Pixhawk Autopilot Bus standard and provides redundant sensing, barometric measurement and interfaces for GNSS, radios and vehicle equipment.

The controller supports PX4 and ArduPilot and connects with standard carrier boards and peripherals. Its extended-range IMUs suit high-speed aircraft, heavy propulsion systems and vehicles exposed to strong vibration. ARK manufactures the unit in the United States using NDAA-compliant components.
