A flight controller is a special harware component that is typically purchased and installed to fly a UAV.  Many projects use flight controllers â this is not one of them! This is an experiment to fly a quadcopter in .NET and to demonstrate the eloquence of Functional Reactive Programming (FRP) for processing sensory input to control the output in a system.
