AutoQuad 6 Flight Controller

What makes the AutoQuad flight controllers special?

무엇이 AutoQuad 비행제어기(FC)를 특별하게 만들까요?

Besides using top quality sensors and MCU, AutoQuad differs in its approach of using sensor calibration techniques and calculating the magnetic profile of the entire multirotor creating the ultimate stable flying and navigation experience.

최고 양질의 센서들과 MCU를 사용한 것 외에도 AutoQuad는 센서 보정 기술을 사용하는 그리고 최고의 안정된 비행과 조종 경험을 갖게 하는 전체 멀티로터의 자기 프로파일을 계산하는 접근 방식에서부터 차이가 납니다.
