iFlight REVOBEE F7 V2 with IMU in the box

iFlight is releasing the new flight controller iFlight REVO BEE F7. This board has interesting design:  gyro chip (IMU, probably the ICM20689) is attached to the dampening foam and then put in a transparent acryllic box and the box attached on top of the F7 MCU. In this way IMU chip is well protected and well dampened. The downside of this solution is total heigth of the FC is 11mm. The board probably will have OSD, as there is a writing OMNIBUS on it.

We probably will have to wait BetaFlight 3.2 in order to F7 work properly with 32kHz gyro rates.

Update 2017-10-24:

More details about original iFlight Revo Bee32 F7 V2 Flight Controller – it uses the STM32F745, ICM20608 over SPI also has on board secondary MPU6000 gyro. With onboard damping box, ICM20608 runs under 32k Gyro loop. Also onboard are a barometer and AB7456 OSD chip for the BetaFlight integrated OSD. iFlight Revo Bee32 F7 V2 supports 2-4s LIPO direct input, build in Current Sensor and Power Filter. Support 2-4S, comes with 5V 1A BEC output. Support SBUS, IBUS, DSMX, SUMD receivers.

Also a cloned (?) board has appeared on the Banggood: https://www.banggood.com/Omnibus-F7-V2-Flight-Controller-STM32-F745-MCU-2-4S-Built-in-Betaflight-OSD-Dual-Gyro-30_5x30_5mm-p-1215667.html
