We’ve all dreamed of flight, but Nick Rehm’s dRehmFlight VTOL brings that dream closer for hobbyists and hackers looking to get their weird contraptions airborne.

Based on a Teensy 4.0 plus TDK MPU-6050 six-axis IMU, the project is intended to teach flight control and stabilization concepts, rather than competing with more specific platforms.

Out of the box, dRehmFlight VTOL supports six speed controllers over OneShot125, with a further seven PWMs for servos or traditional ESCs. The code is extensively documented in order to facilitate learning, and a further 72 pages of documentation, as well as extensive YouTube tutorials and examples make getting started as quick and painless as possible.
