This article is from [https://www.dronecode.org/](https://www.dronecode.org/). NXP writes nothing about this. the [NXP.com](http://NXP.com) itself does not write about it - this is in the category of rumors. 🙂 Do you have a direct link to NXP? ---

The post I linked has been authored and published by NXP. I’ve been told that they are also going to follow-up with another post on their own website, but I don’t know yet when is that going to happen. ---

Hello I’m the author of this post and work in the Mobile Robotics- drones and Rovers team within NXP. We have internal resources in four countries helping with libuavcan for S32K automotive microcontrollers and have created a generic dual CAN-FD node for developers to work with. This is not yet absolute as a standard reference design, but if anyone is interested they can contact us directly as they can be supplied directly. There’s some thought/discussion of running these bare metal vs on top of NuttX (which is already ported to S32K) vs NuttX plus a minimal PX4. We welcome anyone to join the regular developer calls with Pavel. Regards Iain Galloway ---

The RDDrone-FMUK66 does support UAVCAN its the dual CAN ports. We have a dual CAN-FD ‘generic node’ board that is complete, and were preparing the software for. This would allow bridging and experimenting with attached peripherals. ---
