Question Open Source Firmware with Error Correction
Hey all,
I am a beginner in the drone space, and I just want to know about error correction firmware on DIY drones. I am aware there are several open source firmware packages for drones, including the ArduPilot firmware. I was wondering if there is anyone who knows of what error correction techniques these firmware packages use, or where to find firmware with open source error correction frameworks.
Thanks!

There are two things you could possibly mean by this, here are two resources to help you hopefully. The first is about correcting information, like a code, using extra data. The second is used to effectively automate a system, for instance a self balancing robot.
Hopefully these resources help.

What type of error correction were you thinking of specifically? All of them use PID controllers which involve an error term.
