SP Racing F3 Flight Controller ACRO Version

The SP Racing F3 Flight Controller ARCO was designed to give awesome flight performance based on tried and tested sensors whilst also providing unparalleled I/O capabilities in a small and extremely lightweight form-factor using a next-generation CPU.

There are lots of cool features with this flight controller starting with a next-generation STM32 F3 processor with hardware floating point unit for efficient flight calculations and faster ARM-Cortex M4 core. It also comes with a high capacity black box flight log recorder that will help you optimize your tuning without the guesswork. Some more great features are the additional built-in sensors for altitude and direction with the barometer mounted on the bottom of the board for easy wind isolation. Dedicated output for programmable LEDs great for orientation, racing and night flying. The no-compromise I/O supports all the features at the same time.

The difference between Acro and the Deluxe version is:

Acro: Standard model for racing/acro flying.
Deluxe: Additional sensors for altitude and direction.

F3 runs the open-source Clean flight flight control (FC) software which has an ever-growing community of friendly developers and users. Being open-source it allows you to contribute to the system. Clean flight comes with a detailed manual that is reviewed and maintained by the Clean flight developers and community. No more second-hand information.
