Re: Unstable raspberry pi quadcopter without gyroscopes. :-(

... for a small RC aircraft (way to big, power hungry and complex). You want just enough processing power to run PID loops, and talk to gyros, maybe gps and whatever control system you are using. You also really really want it to be real time. While you can get closer with some bare metal OSes than ...

Raspberry Pi can be used, but you would probably have to do it all by yourself. There are many flight controllers on the market, ...

Run gpsd to read the sensor. gpsd supports multiple concurrent TCP/IP clients.

That example of mine is a bit crude. GPS3 is documented here: https://pypi.org/project/gps3/ and the code is hosted here: https://github.com/wadda/gps3
