NAZE32 SP Racing F3 Flight Controller with Cell Case

Racing F3 Flight Controller (SPRacingF3) was designed to give awesome flight performance

based on tried and tested sensors whilst also providing unparalleled I/O capabilities in a small and extremely

lightweight form-factor using a next-generation CPU.

The SPRacingF3 gives you all the features you need for the heart of your aircraft, whether you’re into FPV racing,

acrobatic flying or aerial photography it’s perfect.

Features

• No compromise I/O. Use all the features all the time; e.g. Connect your OSD + SmartPort + SBus + GPS + LED

Strip + Battery Monitoring + Sonar + 8 motors - all at the same time!

• On-board high-capacity black box flight log recorder - optimize your tuning and see the results of your setup without

guesswork ( Deluxe).

• Next-generation STM32 F3 processor with hardware floating point unit for efficient flight calculations and faster

ARM-Cortex M4 core.

• Stackable design - perfect for integrating with OSDs and power distribution boards.

• 16 PWM I/O lines for ESCs, Servos and legacy receivers. 8 available on standard pin headers. 8 via side

mounted connectors.

• Full support for OneShot ESCs for easy PID tuning and a sharper response.

• Supports SBus, SumH, SumD, Spektrum1024/2048, XBus, PPM, PWM receivers. No external inverters required

(built-in).

• Dedicated output for programmable LEDs - great for orientation, racing and night flying.

• Dedicated I2C port for connection of OLED display without needing flight battery.

• Battery monitoring ports for voltage and current.

• Sonar support for precision low-altitude hold.

• Buzzer port for audible warnings and notifications.

• Developer friendly debugging port (SWD) and boot mode selection, unbrickable bootloader.

• Symmetrical design for a super tidy wiring

• Wire up using pin headers, JST-SH sockets or solder pads. Use either right-angled or straight pin-headers.

• Barometer mounted on the bottom of the board for easy wind isolation.

• Loop times up to ~2x as fast as previous-generation STM32F1 based boards.

• Configuration of the flight controller via a cross-platform GUI (Windows/OSX/Linux).

• Supports a variety of aircraft, tricopters, quadcopters, hexacopters, octocopters, planes and more.

• Available in Acro and Deluxe versions.

Variations

Acro: Standard model for racing/acro flying.

Deluxe: Additional sensors for altitude and direction.

Software

The SPRacingF3 runs the open-source Cleanflight flight control (FC) software which has an ever-growing community

of friendly developers and users. Being open-source means that you too can contribute to the system.

Cleanflight comes with a detailed manual that is reviewed and maintained by the Cleanflight developers and

community. No more out-of-date wiki pages and second-hand information.

Ensure you reference the manual that is appropriate to your firmware version.

History

The hardware was designed by the lead developer of Cleanflight, Dominic Clifton, to be more capable than the

STM32F1-based boards after hearing feedback from the Cleanflight users, contributors and top-pilots.

Failure to adhere to these warnings will void your warranty and destroy your flight

controller.

• Observe polarity at ALL TIMES. Check and DOUBLE CHECK before applying power.

• POWER OFF before unplugging, plugging in or making any connections.

• Connect only one SOURCE of power to the VCC pins / Do not connect more than

one source of power to two or more of the VCC pins. e.g. If you are using ESCs

with BECs then remove the center RED wire from all but one ESC connector.

• Do not connect GND, VCC or 3.3v to each other (short circuit).

• Do not connect GND, VCC or 3.3v to any inputs or outputs unless specifically stated.

• Do not connect any input or output to any other input or output unless specifically

stated.

• The 3.3v supply is for low-current use only. 100mA MAX.

• Do not allow dirt/dust/glue/etc into the pressure sensor (barometer).

• Keep magnets away from the flight controller.

WARNINGS

GENERAL ADVICE

Follow the advice below for best performance and long-life of your flight controller:

• Apply resin/glue to reinforce JST-SH connectors - helps if you crash your aircraft.

• Using an enclosure/box for the flight-controller is recommended.

• Install open-cell foam under the pressure sensor - sandwich some between the FC

and frame.

• Route motor/battery wires as far away from the compass sensor (magnetometer)

as possible.

• Only install the BOOT jumper pins if you need them.

• Using color coded pin headers is recommended (not supplied), especially for VBAT

headers.

• Do everything you can to prevent vibrations reaching the accelerometer/gyro sensor.

e.g. balance props, motors and secure everything
