Feature Spotlights

Integrated Mesh Radio for Reliable Multi-Drone Communication

Unlike conventional flight controllers that rely on external modules, APO22 Mini Plus integrates a native multi-hop mesh communication module.
Key advantages:
  • Synchronized control across multiple UAVs

  • Extended operational range via relay networking

  • Stable telemetry in complex environments

This architecture ensures robust coordination and data reliability in real-world missions.

Dual-Redundant Industrial IMU for High-Reliability Flight

The system integrates two ultra-low-noise ICM-42688-P IMUs, featuring low thermal drift and high vibration resistance.
Benefits for professional UAV systems:
  • Accurate attitude estimation under dynamic load

  • Stable performance in high-vibration environments

  • Increased redundancy for mission-critical operations

This industrial-level design significantly reduces flight risk in demanding applications.

Extensive I/O for Payload & System Integration

APO22 Mini Plus provides over 25 I/O channels, allowing seamless integration with a wide range of UAV components.

Supported interfaces include:

  • UART

  • PWM

  • I²C

  • CAN 

  • S.BUSS.BUS 

This flexible connectivity makes it suitable for:

  • Custom payload integration

  • Advanced sensors and communication modules

  • OEM UAV platforms and system upgradesOEM

Ultra-Compact Design for Space-Constrained UAVs

Despite its professional capabilities, APO22 Mini Plus maintains an ultra-compact form factor:

  • Weight: 22 g

  • Dimensions: 43 × 43 × 11.3 mm

Its lightweight design minimizes impact on flight endurance and maneuverability, making it ideal for high-agility and compact UAV platforms.

High-Performance STM32H743 H7 Processor

Powered by the STM32H743 Cortex-M7 (up to 480 MHz), APO22 Mini Plus delivers fast, stable performance for real-time UAV flight control, sensor fusion, and swarm coordination.
Featuring a double-precision FPU and 2 MB Flash + 1 MB RAM, it ensures low latency, high accuracy, and reliable operation for industrial and OEM drone systems.

Aerospace-Grade Redundant IMU

Equipped with dual-redundant aerospace-grade ICM-42688-P inertial sensors, APO22 Mini Plus delivers 40% lower noise and 2× improved thermal stability, ensuring more accurate attitude estimation and stable flight performance in demanding UAV applications.
