RE: [Paparazzi-devel] New uC Target with FPU?

Hi Chris & Antoine,
Thanks for your replies/comments.
Yes, I agree that it's better to spend efforts on something more
advanced such as the STM32. 
I'll order an Olimex STM32-H103 board and play around with it (I have
successfully modified the Olimex LPC-H2148 board to look like a Tiny
v2).
Cheers, Mark

Hi.
I don't know much about Ardupilot but from what i have read so far about
it
it doesn't even come close to Paparazzi.
The Paparazzi autopilot (twog or tiny) works every time and it is very 
dependable
for long flights from my experience.
I do program a lot for AVR and i can't see how an AVR cpu can be 
compared to an ARM one.
The power of AVR cpu is significantly less than the ARM one and floating

point math would
overload it i think.
The STM32 really has everything that is needed for an advanced autopilot

and that is the way
the tiny or twog should evolve i think.
Only my opinion.
Chris
