Multiwii and Megapirate AIO Flight Controller w/FTDI (ATmega 2560)This board
features a multiple serial interface as well as a dedicated I2C
interface. You can now plug in a GPS directly, and you still have extra
ports for other external devices. In addition to that, the new ATmega
2560 has more IO pins so it can both read the PWM signal from your
receiver and it has enough PWM outputs to control the ESCs directly without the need to do the PWM signal in software.
This controller even has a MicroUSB port right on the board, no need to attach an extra FTDI USB interface.
The
motion sensing side features a new generation MEMS Gyro, a MPU6050 by
InvenSense, which has the MEMS Gyro / Accelerometer sensor on a single
chip. There’s also a 3-axis magnetometer and a barometer sensor with a
resolution of 0.01 millibar – approximately a 10 cm height difference.
Interested
in GPS functionality? Well this is one of the most cost effective ways
to get started - simply add a 10Hz GPS module (coming soon) and you’re
good to go!
