This version of the controller is our new direction in the development of the stabilizing solutions. It will replace the previous 8-bit version of the SimpleBGC controller, keeping 100% back-compatibility, but adding the new fuctionality.

Basic functions of the controller

32-bit MCU — ARM Cortex M4. Effectively calculates the complex tasks for 3-axis stabilization.
Allows camera control with the RC or analog joystick.
Use several switchable profiles for different modes of operation
Supports variety of RC protocols: PWM, Sum-PPM, spektrum and s-bus.
Battery voltage monitoring, compensating voltage drop in the PID-regulator.
Low battery alarm (output to 5V active buzzer).
Increased number of inputs for controlling signals + 3 additional reserved input/output AUX1-AUX3.
Can supply up to 1A current for external devices on the 5V power line.
Dedicated UART-socket to connect optional Bluetooth module
Reverse-polarity protection, overheat and overcurrent protection
USB interface for the PC connection, to configure, control and upgrade firmware.
Graphical user interface to manage the settings. Windows / OS X / Linux versions.
Control through the Serial-protocol using dedicated API.
Improved attitude estimation algorythms
Optional second IMU, that will increase the short-term precision of the stabilization 10x-30x times and  will make stable work in any frame position.
