Onboard vision for your flight controller.
SmartPilot Lite is a 48 × 48 mm AI vision computer built on the STM32N6 neural MCU. It drops onto a standard 30.5 mm stack, sits in your video path and talks to your FC over MAVLink.
A vision computer that fits the stack you already fly.
Neural processing on board
Built around the STM32N657 with its integrated NPU, so vision models run on the aircraft — no separate companion computer, no cloud.
Works with your flight controller
Attitude and altitude come straight from your FC over MAVLink. Your FC keeps flying the aircraft; SmartPilot Lite adds the eyes.
Analog in, analog out
Takes your analog FPV camera, draws its own OSD and passes composite video on to the FC and VTX — no change to your goggles.
Digital-ready over Ethernet
Pair a MIPI CSI-2 camera with an IP radio: SmartPilot Lite streams video with the OSD burned in, while your FC telemetry link stays as it is.
Stack-native size
48 × 48 mm with a 30.5 mm hole pattern. It stacks like an FC or ESC — no custom brackets or pods.
Straight off the pack
Powers directly from 4S to 8S LiPo (12–33.6 V) with an ideal-diode input stage for reverse-polarity protection.
Two video paths. One board.
SmartPilot Lite sits between your camera and your transmitter, so every frame passes through the NPU before it reaches your goggles.
Analog

- SP Lite
- FC (+ OSD)
- Analog VTX
Keeps your existing analog gear. SmartPilot Lite overlays its own OSD, and your FC adds its usual one on top.
Digital (IP)
Ethernet · OSD burned in- Camera
- SP Lite
- IP radio
Streams to SIYI-class IP radios over Ethernet. Your FC-to-radio telemetry link is unchanged.
Closed digital systems (DJI, Walksnail, HDZero) use their own cameras and aren't supported in the video path.

Gyro-stabilized video, no gimbal.
The next revision adds a board-level IMU for electronic image stabilization on bare CSI-2 cameras.
