Program used to control a quadcopter. It uses a PID library which can be found in: http://developer.mbed.org/cookbook/PID I also uses my own written library for easily controlling quadcopter motors, which can be found in: https://developer.mbed.org/users/moklumbys/code/Quadcopter/ One more library that I used is MPU6050 that was previously written by Erik Olieman but I was able to update it with new functions: https://developer.mbed.org/users/moklumbys/code/MPU6050/

Dependencies:   MPU6050 PID Quadcopter Servo mbed
