Abstract
In this talk I will show the latest updates from the ArduPilot community where we take the obsession with flying robots very seriously. From tiny 100g micro-drones to monsters weighing over a tonne, ArduPilot continues to cover a huge range of aircraft types and uses. Key highlights will include the new AP_Periph system for creating UAVCAN peripherals, a new embedded Lua engine for customisation and a new quadplane landing system.
