Hey everyone,
I've been reading up on eFPGA (embedded Field-Programmable Gate Array) and I'm curious about its potential applications in drones.
How can integrating eFPGA into drone systems improve performance or add new features? Has anyone here exper

recently I found the flopbot project, where they have built and flown a monocopter. Has anyone tried a monocopter of their own or to replicate the flopbot?
Any insight or experience you could share would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
When it comes to renting a drone, the cost can vary depending on several factors:
As a crucial component of multi-rotor drones, the motor system has strict reuiqrements on horizontal accuracy. Even minor installation errors or loose parts can affect flight stability. Therefore, regular pre-flight calibration is essential to ensur

I have been always active in fixed wing.
One of my friends asked me to look in, the chances a quadcopter can survive a defect engine, or motor controller ?
The Frame should carry a 5kg sensor package, so, we are talking about a pretty heavy machi

The only thing that is non-standard, is we have a 2 ½

As the Arduino is a microcontroller, would it not make more sense, that a flightcontroller would split up, flight controll , to be handled by an arduino , and higher functions, like comm. OSD, etc by a CPU ?
Anybody worked on something like this ?
