Introduction

The

 

Multiwii_32U4_SE

 

is

 

an

 

All

In

One

 

Flight

Controller

 

(FC),

 

usable

 

for

 

all

 

sizes

 

of

 

Multirotor helicopters.

 

It

 

is

 

equipped

 

with

 

a

 

microcontroller,

 

a

 

3

axis

 

gyroscope

 

(GYRO),
a

 

3

axis

 

accelerometer

 

(ACC),

 

a

 

3

axismagnetometer

 

(MAG)

 

and

 

a

 

barometer

 

(BARO)..

The

 

FC

 

was

 

developed

 

for

 

use

 

with

 

the

 

multiWii

software

 

(www.multiwii.com)

 

from

Alexandre Debus

 

– aka.

 

AlexInParis – and

 

it

 

supports

 

all

 

flight

 

conditions.

An

 

Atmel AVR

 

8

bit

 

microcontroller

 

(MCU),the ATMEGA32U4,

 

is

 

used

 

on

 

the

 

32U4_SE.

This

 

MCU

 

has

 

6

 

high

resolution

 

PWM

 

(ESC

 

signal)

 

outputs,

 

an

 

on

chip

 

USB

 

interface

(so,

 

no

 

need

 

for

 

a

 

FTDI

 

adapter)

 

and

 

the

 

ability

 

to

 

read

 

the

 

signals

 

of

 

various

 

RX

 

types.
