MicroPilot is a Canadian company that specializes in miniature autopilots for RC planes and UAV (Unmanned Aerial/Autonomous Vehicles). Their newest product, the MP2028g is the smallest autopilot in the world, which means this 28 gram device can guide your RC plane or mobile attack drone to over 1,000 programmable waypoints while increasing total flight time. The MicroPilot ‘Clients’ page reads as a Who’s Who of scientific and military UAV, full of target drones, helicopter/fixed wing spy hybrids [image right], and words like ‘subsonic,’ ‘target acquisition,’ ‘smoke generator,’ and ‘high-speed aerial maneuvers,’ all of which could just as easily be used to describe my hourly trips to the fridge.
