In this chapter, we will show you what an autopilot is. We’ll also introduce the characteristics and history of the hardware and software used throughout this book, which are the ArduPilot libraries and the Pixhawk autopilot. You will learn the difference between a GUI and an SDK, and how many types of SDKs there are for programming autopilots. Additionally, we will discuss other compatible projects and you will learn to distinguish between clone and original versions.
