PROFILE
Konstantin Lelkov
Worked on the PX4/PX4-Autopilot repository to deliver a key scalability feature, expanding electronic speed controller (ESC) outputs from 8 to 12 channels to support up to 16 ESC CAN devices. This involved updating configuration files such as module.yaml and EscStatus.msg to accommodate the increased motor count and ensure compatibility with hardware testing rigs. The approach focused on configuration management using YAML, embedded systems integration, and hardware-in-the-loop validation. Collaboration with other contributors was demonstrated through co-authored commits. The work enables higher-motor drone configurations, improves system configurability, and lays the groundwork for future scaling in drone technology platforms.

Mar 1, 2026Month 2026-03: Delivered a key scalability feature for PX4-Autopilot by expanding ESC outputs from 8 to 12 channels (supporting up to 16 ESC CAN), with configuration and interface adjustments to enable control of additional motors. Updated critical interfaces (EscStatus.msg, module.yaml) to reflect the new motor count and ensure compatibility with hardware testing rigs. Hardware validation completed to confirm integration across target configurations. No major bug fixes recorded this month; focus was on feature delivery and system integration. Overall impact: enables higher-motor configurations, improves configurability, and strengthens hardware validation for future scaling. Technologies/skills demonstrated: DroneCAN/CAN bus scaling, YAML/config management, hardware-in-the-loop testing, and cross-team collaboration (co-authored commits).
