Flight controller basics for beginners

SUPPORT ME   / pawelspychalski   Flight controllers are essential part of the RC & FPV hobby. We use them in multirotor drones and RC airplanes. With Ardupilot, Betaflight and INAV. In this video let’s explore the vast world of RC & FPV flight controllers. Let’s answer the questions: what is a flight controller, what it does, how we can classify them. And finally, what is the best gyroscope and accelerometer chipset! Yes, it’s MPU6000 but it’s not as much important question as it was years ago.
