This Scale-Model SpaceX Starship Handles Autonomous Flights — Under Teensy 4.0 Control
A custom electronics package programmed in the Arduino IDE got this 3D-printed Starship model flying under its own steam.

Pseudonymous maker "yo90bosses" is heading to the stars — or at least off the ground — with an autonomous model of the SpaceX Starship — a drone, but with a very familiar silhouette.
"This has been a multi-year project of mine," yo90bosses explains of the model. "It's a fully functional and 3D-printed autonomous [SpaceX] Starship model that uses cheap sensors and servos. Everything from task scheduling, sensor communication, sensor data fusion, control algorithms, data link, etc. was custom designed and implemented and runs on Arduino."
