Compact Modular Flight Management
The Piccolo™ Nano line is the newest and smallest addition to the Cloud Cap Piccolo family of autopilot systems. Designed to meet the requirements of the smallest UAVs where the vehicle structure provides the enclosure and the autopilot components need to be distributed within the airframe’s available space.
Compatible with the existing industry standard Piccolo autopilot series in both software and feature capability. The Piccolo Nano series provides small, lightweight, flexible architecture to support small hand launched or uniquely configured UAS systems.
*Multiple versions of the Piccolo Nano are available that provide different levels of functionality
