The Cube Purple – Module
The Cube Purple – Module Packs Serious Autopilot Power Into a Tiny Case
The Cube Purple – Module is a smaller, simplified version of the Cube Black, built around a single IMU and a single barometer instead of the triple-redundant sensor stack found on Cube Black and Cube Orange+. That makes it the right choice when you don't need flight-grade sensor redundancy and want to save space and weight instead — smooth fixed-wings, rovers, boats, and other ground or surface vehicles. Despite the smaller footprint, The Cube Purple – Module still runs the same STM32H753 flight management unit as its bigger siblings, so you get a genuinely capable, reliable autopilot in a compact case.
Key Features of The Cube Purple – Module
Compact single-board design
FMU and IMU housed in one small case — Cube Black's flight-management power, without the second and third IMU board.
Built for ground and surface vehicles
Purpose-suited for cars, rovers, boats, and smooth fixed-wings that don't need vibration isolation.
Powerful STM32H753 processor
2MB flash, 1MB RAM — the same FMU family used in Cube Orange.
Standard DF17 connector
Plug-and-play with any CubePilot-compliant carrier board, including the Mini Carrier Board.
