[Review Request] Custom RC Transmitter PCB

As this is my first PCB in KiCad, and it is a bit more complex, I thought it would be a good idea to ask for some feedback.

Mainly because I plan on keeping this open source, and I don't want to share something that's wrong.

The main IC is an STM32H745ZIT6.

PCB: https://github.com/alx-uta/Orthrus-TX/tree/dev/PCB

Schematic (PDF): https://github.com/alx-uta/Orthrus-TX/blob/dev/PCB/Orthrus-TX.pdf

(0 "F.Cu" signal "L1_SIG_TOP") -> Signal
(4 "In1.Cu" power "L2_GND") -> GND
(6 "In2.Cu" power "L3_POWER") -> Power
(8 "In3.Cu" power "L4_GND") -> GND
(10 "In4.Cu" signal "L5_ELRS") -> ELRS + Other signals
(12 "In5.Cu" power "L6_GND") -> GND
(14 "In6.Cu" signal "L7_ANALOG") -> Analog + Other signals
(2 "B.Cu" power "L8_GND") -> GND

I also had some good feedback from the KiCad community that I took into consideration.

(Please ignore the USB 3D model, as I couldn't find the right one.)

Thanks.

First PCB using KiCad - Custom RC Transmitter PCB

I always used to design 2 layer PCBs using Fusion 360, but because I needed more layers, I thought that it would be good if I tried using KiCad.

I really wish I had started with KiCad instead of trying to design PCBs using Fusion360.
