OmnibusF7 setup/wiring sanity check

Hi all. Among the two F745 autopilots that ArduCopter is now supporting, the Kakute F7 is seeing extensive use while the Omnibus F7 is apparently less well used or documented. I am planning a build with the latter, so here I’d appreciate if somebody could sanity check my setup / wiring.

By reading the hwdef I have worked out the wiring as follows:

USART1 -> Telemetry Radio
USART2 -> SBus (If a PPM signal is connected to the SBus pin, does the autopilot auto-detect PPM?)
USART3 -> Pins used by I2C for external compass
USART6 -> GPS
USART7 -> BlHeli32 telemetry

A crude diagram is prepared too. Don’t hesitate to point out errors, I’ll correct any immediately.

Some additional questions

  • Is there a reason in hardware or performance why the OmnibusF7 is scarcely used?
  • Is it possible to use the external baro in the HERE 2 GNSS and bypass the internal baro on Omnibus / Kakute boards?
  • One of my reasons to NOT use the kakute is that I need PPM input for RFD900X RC passthrough. Does anyone see a problem with that?
