Skybean Nano Specifications

  • USB-C

    Provides high-speed data transfer and power delivery.
    The device can draw power from the USB-C port, but not charge. Charging circuitry is not included to save weight and space in the microrockets.

  • ESP32-S3

    The ESP32-S3 is a powerful microcontroller that runs the BeanOS operating system.

    • Dual-core 240MHz
    • 2.4GHz radio for WiFi, Bluetooth or ESP-NOW communication
  • Barometric Sensor

    The BMP390 delivers precise pressure readings for altitude measurement and staging progression.

  • Inertial Measurement Unit

    A high performance Bosch 6DOF IMU.

    • Acceleration measurement range up to ±24G
    • Gyroscope measurement range up to 2000°/s
  • Antenna

    u.FL connector to connect an external antenna.
    Can be used for a live downlink during flight.

  • LED

    Two independent RGB LEDs provide visual feedback for device status.

  • Battery

    This connector connects to a standard LiPo battery to power the device during flight.
    The voltage is monitored by the MCU and can be logged or transmitted wirelessly.

  • Pyro

    Pyro channels for deployment and separation events.

    • 4 independent outputs
    • Rated for 1A continuously, 5A for short bursts
  • Servo

    Servo channels for actuating mechanical systems.

    • 2 independent channels
    • Direct connection to the battery voltage
    • PWM signal level-shifted to the battery voltage
    • Compatible with standard servo motors
  • Buzzer

    Buzzer that can be used for various purposes.

    • User feedback
    • Finding back the Skybean after landing
  • Flash

    This memory is fully available for datalogging and separate from the main firmware.
    The solder DFN8 is more robust at high acceleration than SD-cards
