Description
⚠️ Integration note: The ARK Jetson PAB V3 exposes flight controller I/O (GPS, telemetry, CAN, PWM, RC input) on two 40-pin Molex Pico-Clasp connectors rather than individual Pixhawk-standard JST-GH connectors. Connecting peripherals requires building a custom wiring harness (see the pinout in the documentation) or using the ARK Primary Avionics Breakout and ARK Secondary Avionics Breakout boards. If you want standard JST-GH connectors out of the box, see the ARK Jetson PAB Carrier.
The ARK Jetson Pixhawk Autopilot Bus (PAB) Carrier V3 is based on the Pixhawk Autopilot Bus open source specification and the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX/Nano Carrier Board. The Pixhawk Autopilot Bus (PAB) form factor enables the ARK PAB Carrier to be used with any PAB flight controller such as the ARKV6X.
