Vehicle Types & Setup
PX4 supports numerous types of vehicles, including different configurations of multicopters, planes, VTOL vehicles, ground vehicles, and so on.
This section explains how to assemble, configure, and tune PX4-based autopilot systems for each type (much of this setup is common to all types).
::: info Basic Concepts > Drone Types provides high level information about the types of vehicles and the use cases for which they are best suited. :::
Supported Vehicles
The frame types that have a maintainer and are well tested and supported are:
- Multicopters (tri-, quad-, hexa-, octa-, and even omnicopter vehicles)
- Planes (Fixed-Wing)
- VTOL: Standard VTOL, Tailsitter VTOL, Tiltrotor VTOL
Experimental Vehicles
Experimental frames are those vehicle types that:
- Do not have a maintainer.
- Are not regularly tested by the core development team.
- May not be tested in CI.
- May lack features required for production-ready vehicles.
- May not support some common vehicle configurations for the vehicle type.
The following vehicle types are considered experimental:
::: info Maintainer volunteers, contribution of new features, new frame configurations, or other improvements would all be very welcome! :::
Other Vehicles
The complete set of supported vehicle types and their configurations can be found in the Airframes Reference.
