ardupilot VS etl

They are widely used in narrow circles :)

Two of (arguably the best) open source RC aircraft flight controllers (ArduPilot and PX4) are using extended Kalman filters in their state estimators (essentially sensor fusion that provides attitude/position estimate):

I'm not that familiar with cleanflight/betaflight/inav scene to know what the FPV racer flight controllers use.

Trimble also has some nice stuff, I think the BD940 is interesting. I do not know if it's recommended or not, but Ardupilot has a driver for the Septentrio GPS (https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/blob/master/libraries/AP_GPS/AP_GPS_SBF.cpp), as well for Trimble GPS (https://github.com/ArduPilot/ardupilot/blob/master/libraries/AP_GPS/AP_GPS_GSOF.cpp). So people have used these brands for drones.

For programmable open source autopilot: Arduino > Ardupilot (https://ardupilot.org).

You might also want to look at something like Ardupilot

I'd like to emphasize the reference to Ardupilot bc there is a lot of material already developed there: a lot about navigation and guidance from UAVs, and the low-level stuff. Check this out

If you can't use the STL because of exceptions: https://www.etlcpp.com/

You can also use ETL (https://www.etlcpp.com)

Use ETL for embedded standard library functionality: https://www.etlcpp.com/

The best choice here is use embedded Template Library: https://www.etlcpp.com/

If you can't get C++23, expected it's implemented in the ETL (it's also just a really amazing library for this kind of stuff - highly recommend!).

I want to use some of C++ std library classes/functions in my embedded system library project that I'm writing. However as the environment has limited ressources I don't want to have use or expose classes or functions that do the following: * Dynamic memory allocations * RTTI * Runtime exceptions I will be rewriting some basic container and algorithms according to my needs. I know that there are other re writes of STL like ESTL but I don't want to have any external dependencies So my question is can I somehow compile/package a fork of C++ std library that only include embedded systems friendly classes such as: - array - tuple - variant - type_traits Etc This compiled library must be completely standalone. The compiler that I use can support upto C++17 standard.

I will never not recommend the Embedded Template Library

STL containers use dynamic memory allocation which is often a no-no in embedded contexts. there is the ETL https://www.etlcpp.com/ but I haven't used it!
