Sad news from Hackaday:
Fabio Varesano, the man behind FreeIMU and Femtoduino, died of a sudden heart attack at the much too young age of 28. The RC helicopter/plane/drone and HCI/physical computing communities lose a great mind with Fabio‘s passing.
There is talk on the Dangerous Prototypes forum of continuing the development of FreeIMU, a project it seems Fabio worked on alone. We’d love to see someone pick up the reigns of the FreeIMU project, hopefully after doing a run of the current hardware and donating the proceeds to Fabio‘s family.

Ciao Fabio, ora volerai anche senza drone...
Long live Fabio ! The RC Community will always remember you ! :-(
Very sad news. Fabio was a pioneer. I learnt a great deal from his words. He was never too busy to answer questions or give advise. A gentleman and a clever person. He will be sorely missed by so many.
Truly sad news, such a brilliant mind. All the condolences to his family. And for sure, FreeIMU will continue.

Sad to hear. Hope the FreeIMU continues on, as his legacy. RIP.
there have been several people who have died recently that had very contributive work all at a young age. so very odd, he will be missed.
RIP Fabio, your work was and remains an inspiration.
Sad news. Never good to lose somene but at such a young age it is especially sad.
