Microcontroller


A microcontroller (sometimes abbreviated µC, uC or MCU) is a small computer on a single integrated circuit containing a processor core, memory, and programmable input/output peripherals. Neither programme memory in the form of NOR flash or OTP ROM is also often included on chip, as well as a typically small amount of RAM. Microcontrollers are designed for embedded applications, in contrast to the microprocessors used in personal computers or other general purpose applications.
            For this project, microcontroller is use as a main controller of the helicopter. When the wireless detects the input for controller at PC, it will send high signal to the controller; this is where the helicopter starts.
