The Jetson has two main ways of communicating with the flight stack and payloads. The Jetson is connected via ethernet to both the ethernet port at the top of the drone, the 8 pin ethernet port at the bottom of the drone, and the Herelink Airunit. These channels are for the Jetson and drone controller communication, payload communication, and developer access through SSH. The Jetson is also connected to the flight controller through serial UART, which is the channel for .
The F-11 comes in two configurations. The base configuration supports a maximum payload of 5lb, while the heavy configuration supports up to 5.9lb. Payloads can be powered and controlled through the readily available external ports and connectors available on the drone.
There are 22 total mounting points, all of which use M3 screws. 10 are on the top of the drone, and 12 are on the bottom. The bottom points have a depth of 5mm, while the top have a depth of 8mm.
There are two XT30 connectors on the bottom of the drone. The first XT30 connect can have a 3A/12V or 4A/28V configuration option. The other connector supplies VBAT (50.4V to 36V).
The main I/O access points on the drone are the standard ethernet port located at the top of the drone, two peripheral USB 3.0 (type A) ports, one 10-pin gimbal control port, and one 8-pin ethernet port on the bottom of the drone.
