Hi, I'm Pavel Chládek

I'm an engineer who builds things from the ground up — from raw silicon to flying platforms. Whether it's routing differential pairs on a 4-layer stack-up or tuning PID loops in firmware, I care deeply about understanding every layer of the system.

My workflow spans KiCad for schematic capture and PCB layout, Autodesk Fusion 360 for mechanical enclosures and drone frames, and C/C++ for bare-metal microcontroller firmware. I've designed boards around STM32 Cortex-M4 cores, written custom HAL drivers, and tuned Klipper to coax sub-0.1 mm precision out of 3D printers.

On the aerial side, I build and fly custom FPV and autonomous drones, integrating ExpressLRS for low-latency datalinks and developing my own flight-computer hardware rather than relying on off-the-shelf stacks.

I believe that understanding hardware at the transistor level makes you a better software engineer, and vice-versa — the best systems are designed by people who think across the full stack.
