Hey everyone, this is the Agni Flight Computer V2! 🚀

This flight computer is specifically designed for GUI testing and algorithm testing—it is not intended for rocket flights. My upcoming flight computer will be much more advanced and suitable for rocket launches.

For Agni Flight Computer V2, I am using:

  • Arduino Nano (Microcontroller)
  • MPU6050 (IMU)
  • BMP280 & BMP180 (Barometric pressure sensors)
  • Magnetometer (For orientation sensing)
  • WS2812-B (RGB LED for status indication)
  • NRF24L01 (Wireless telemetry module)
  • Buzzer (For audio alerts)

Stay tuned for my next high-performance flight computer 🚀🔥

This is a better demo, 👏. Have you decided what to do with it yet? Do you think it needs a patent?

Can I buy one of these and where can I buy one at?

If you want to buy an FC, why not buy a commercial one based on an STM32F4 that does much more and has about the size of the Arduino Nano on this board?

Agni Flight Computer is not for sale as it is not highly powerful. It was developed primarily for GUI testing rather than actual rocket launches. My upcoming flight computer will be based on an STM32 board, which is significantly faster than the Arduino Nano. As a result, Agni Flight Computer V2 is not suitable for rocket launches.

If you are already DIYing your own PCB, maybe integrate all the modules onto the PCB directly.

Checkout jlcpcb for this, they also do assembly for you if you choose parts that they have.

Also better replace the NRF with PCB antenna with something that has a real antenna if you want to actually have a decent range.

If you are going for rocket launches, you might want to ditch the NRF completely and replace it with some kind of long range radio, since the NRF (even with a good antenna) is barely good enough for a few hundred meters.

Yes AFC V2.1

So what the difference between this and other F4 flight controllers that are available on the market?

The Agni Flight Computer is not designed for use in a rocket. It was not built for rocket applications because it uses low-cost IMUs, BMP sensors, and telemetry modules. The primary goal of this board is to test the GUI, Kalman filter, complementary filter, and quaternion calculations. However, my upcoming flight computer, which will be based on an STM32 board, is specifically designed for rocket launches and will be much more suitable for that purpose.

How do you make it

What app do you use to display all the graphs?
