General instructions

In high-vibration applications (such as drones) it is required to secure all screw connections using an appropriate thread-locker. Failure to do so might result in loss of flight and/or property damage or personal injury.

Included items

The Open.OC2 board comes packaged with the following items:

Open.OC2 package contents
Qty Item Picture
1 Open.OC2 carrier board
1 Cube Orange FMU
1 NVIDIA Jetson Nano production module
2 M2.5 x XXXmm PCB spacer
2 M2.5 x XXXmm screws
4 ESC cable: JST-GH(4) <==> 2xDupont(3)
1 Ethernet cable: JST-GH(8) <==> JST-GH(8)
1 Ethernet adapater board: JST-GH(8) <==> RJ-45
1 USB adapter cable: JST-GH(4) <==> micro-USB(F)
1 RC cable: JST-GH(3) <==> Dupoint(3)
1 VESC cable: JST-GH(3) <==> Wires
2 Power cable: JST-XH(2) <==> Wires


Step 2: Install Jetson Nano module

  • Install the provided spacer posts on the Open.OC board.
  • Mount the Jetson Nano module on the Open.OC board. Carefully insert the edge connector into the SODIMM-slot and gently push down until the locking mechanism engages.
  • Secure the module using the provided M2.5 screws

Step 3: Install the Pixhawk Cube

  • Place the Cube on the board in the designated area taking care to use the correct orientation and gently push down until a faint click can be felt. The Cube should be flush on the board.
  • Secure the Cube using the provided 4 screws.

Step 4 (optional): Install mini PCIExpress hardware

  • Insert the mini-PCIE module into the connector.
  • Gently push down the module and secure using 2x M2.5 screws.

Step 5: Connect ethernet

  • Using the provided JST GH8 -- RJ45 adapter cable connect your board to your local LAN

Alternatively: Provide WPA credentials

  • Insert a FAT32 formatted SD-card containing a file wpa.txt with your SSID and wifi password to connect the board to your local WLAN.

Step 7: Connect power

  • Voltage min/max?


The board is now ready to be installed in your drone.
