Description

The Matek H743 V3 is a fixed wing autopilot primarily designed to run Ardupilot bring alot of value to the table (it does also support Inav and Betaflight).Please note that the pin headers shown require soldering onto the flight controller

Detailed Information

H743-WING v3 is a refreshed design of the popular H743 Wing flight controller from Matek ICM42605, some revised connectors and component layout to make the board even better than before.  Best of all this flight controller can be used with Betaflight, Inav and Ardupilot.

Other Notes

ArduPilot

  • H743-WING-V3 with ICM42605 is supported by ArduPilot 4.1 latest or newer,
  • ICM42605 is defined as first IMU (IMU0) ,  MPU6000 is the 2nd (IMU1).
  • Current sensor range is 220A on H743-WING-V2,  make sure you set the BATT_AMP_PERVLT to 66.7
  • It is recommended to use STM32CubeProgrammer to erase MCU and upload firmware.
  • Known issue and solution,  H7 will not initialize with Ardupilot firmware

INAV

  • Current sensor range is 220A on H743-WING-V2,  make sure you set the Current Meter Scale to 150
  • IMU ICM42605 is supported by INAV3.0.2 or higher.
  • MPU6000 is the first IMU(IMU0, default), ICM42605 is the 3rd IMU (IMU2) in INAV MATEKH743 target.
  • If you want to try the new ICM-4 series of IMUs.  download inav_3.0.2_MATEKH743.hex
    • set gyro_to_use = 2
    • set acc_hardware = icm42605
    • save
  • If you stick with MPU6000 only, H743-WING-V2 works with stable version 3.0.x downloaded from configurator also.
  • Known issue, SD card and MSC mode for H743 is not implemented.

Others

  • If the ESCs you are using don’t have enough capacitors integrated,  low ESR electrolytic capacitor is required for reducing ESC noise.
