The MR-HGK-RT NXPHoverGames Kit UAV Robotics Reference Design combines the MR-VMU-RT1176 real-time vehicle management unit with modular hardware to self-assemble a drone. It supports the PX4 flight stack, Zephyr RTOS and Cognipilot, enabling flexible development in control, communications and autonomous systems. The platform integrates BLDC motor controllers, power distribution, networking and expansion support for components like NavQPlus, RTK-GPS and telemetry radios. This design accelerates prototyping for UAVs and robotic systems.
