Copper is Airborne!

A quick update on what we've been up to lately.

One of Copper's superpowers is bringing high-level, safe autonomy to really constrained environments; not just technically (power, weight), but also in practical business terms like BOM cost.

To show this off, we’ve been putting some time into a quadcopter demo with three goals in mind:

• Create a solid, end-to-end tutorial series on YouTube to help you bring Copper to life in your own projects.

• Drop half a dozen new components in the upcoming v0.7.0 release ready for you to use. including flight controller communication, controls, and fast CV-based fiducial localization.

• Build a working demo and reference platform to make it easier (and cheaper) to get started with these kinds of applications.

More soon!
