    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.

  • WorkOS

    For Disco you're in luck, there are some really decent ardupilot-based projects out there[1]. Plus, unlike the Bebop camera which is inaccessible via the shell (you can only use the Parrot SDK), the Disco camera can be commanded to stream/record with a few simple commands, and even bound to controller inputs.

    A caveat with the controller: it needs to have custom firmware[2] to get it communicating with ardupilot, and to get the firmware onto the controller you need telnet/adb into it via SkyController→usb→ethernet→usb→Laptop adaptor(s).

    For a ground control system (GCS), there's three to choose from: Mission Planner, APM Planner, and QGroundControl[3] (ignore the rest, use this one).

    For configuring the drone, mission planner is pretty good... but you can also just use MavProxy[4] which is a fantastic commandline program that all the GCSes use in some way, and can even be installed in Termux/Android.

  • DroneDB

    Free and open source software for aerial data storage.

  • Project mention: Suggestion for map sharing/after process with large files | /r/UAVmapping | 2023-12-05

    There is DroneDB, it's open source project, and you can self-host, or open up projects locally for free. I also believe it has a cloud service that has a few Gb free, but for bigger projects you would have to buy it. It's pretty ok from my experience, but I'm not sure if you can have annotations, I believe it uses similar libraries as WebODM.
