The awesome Tom Pycke, who taught us tons in the early days, is now back with a new autopilot project. It's called GluonPilot, and you can follow the progress here. He's super smart, so this is one to keep your eye on.

Tom uses Kalman filtering with his own code but maybe DCM could be ported over to his AP. I like the built in pressure sensor for altitude, I think that is a big plus since GPS is not always precise with altitude.
