The CubePilot Cube Red (Australia) is an autopilot module of the Cube family for heavy multicopters, designed with two processors, Ethernet and CAN FD for data-intensive platforms. Like every Cube, it plugs into a carrier board.
Two STM32H7 with two cores each (Cortex-M7 and M4) and an external flash offer considerably more computing reserve than the Cubes with a single processor. According to the CubePilot documentation four IMUs are fitted, three primary and one secondary, plus three barometers; more sensors make it possible to outvote a faulty one. The interfaces listed are 3 × CAN FD, USB-C, 10/100 Ethernet, a DSI port and an isolated static pressure port. PX4 and ArduPilot are supported.
CubePilot declares its products except Herelink as NDAA compliant; this includes the Cube Red and may be required for contracts with US federal authorities. In the EU the finished drone decides on class and Remote ID; heavy platforms above 25 kg take-off mass belong in the specific category.
Dealers list the hardware as a beta version for development purposes in a design-update phase; anyone planning it for a series project clarifies the hardware revision beforehand. CAN FD and Ethernet connectors are checked under vibration, and the static pressure port needs a tight, clean line. After every modification all sensors are calibrated, and the firmware is maintained in line with the hardware revision.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
