What is APM flight controller?

The APM 2.8 Multicopter Flight Controller is a complete open source autopilot system. This is the best selling technology that won the prestigious Outback Challenge UAV competition. It allows the user to turn any fixed, rotary-wing.

Are drone GPS accurate?

Ground Control Points processing with DroneDeploy add another layer of location data to the map, rather than relying solely on the GPS of the drone. With added GCPs and Checkpoints, we expect 1-5 centimeters of accuracy. This is greatly dependent on your Ground Sampling Distance, i.e. the number of pixels/cm.

What kind of Flight Control Board is kk2.0?

The KK2.0 Multi-Rotor controller is a flight control board for multi-rotor Aircraft (Tricopters, Quadcopters, Hexcopters etc).

What is the purpose of the kk2.0 multi rotor controller?

The KK2.0 Multi-Rotor controller is a flight control board for multi-rotor Aircraft (Tricopters, Quadcopters, Hexcopters etc). Its purpose is to stabilize the aircraft during flight. To do this it takes the signal from the three on board gyros (roll, pitch and yaw) then passes the signal to the Atmega324PA IC.

Who is the father of the KK Flight Control Board?

Designed by the Grand father of the KK revolution, Rolf R Bakke, exclusively for , the KK2.0 is the evolution of the first generation KK flight control boards. The KK2.0 was engineered from the ground up to bring multi-rotor flight to everyone, not just the experts. The LCD screen and built in software makes install and setup easier than ever.

Can a KK 2.0 be used in multiple Copters?

Also relatively new (though also available for the KK 2.0) is the profile option to let you define multiple presets. That way you can set up profiles for a copter with and without heavy payload, or use one flight controller in multiple copters. Quick tuning is a good way to change PI parameters without having to constantly go in and out of menus.
