   1 # Board - RMRC Dodo
   2
   3 The RMRC Dodo board is made and sold by Ready Made RC. In terms of CPU pin mapping it is a clone of the SPRacingF3 board (also see the SPRacingF3 documentation). Currently there are three versions with slightly different hardware available: Rev. 1, 2, and 3.
   4
   5 The revision 3 board changed the CPU from one with 128KB to one with 256KB however, for compatibility reasons, Cleanflight only supports and uses 128KB of it.  The same binary can be used on all DODO boards.

   7 ## Hardware Features
   8
   9 * STM32 F3 ARM Cortex-M processor with 128KB or 256KB flash program memory (Rev. 1 and 2: 128KB flash, Rev 3 256K).
  10 * 2MB external flash memory for storage.
  11 * MPU6050 accelerometer/gyro (Rev. 2: MPU6000)
  12 * BMP280 Barometer
  13 * No compass sensor.
  14 * 3 hardware UARTs (+ 2 software) for GPS, telemetry, OSD, etc., 5V compatible
  15 * On-board 5V/0.5A BEC directly powered off 2-6S main battery pack. No external BEC/regulator necessary.
  16 * On-board 3.3V regulator to power peripherials like Spektrum satellite receiver.
  17 * 36x36mm board with 30.5mm mounting holes pattern (same as CC3D or Naze32, but different pin-out).

  19 Note: Earlier revisions had issues with the buzzer circuit.
