Create a custom controller for a drone

[mre]

What?

This is super-far-fetched, but I still wanted to note it down somewhere: It would be awesome to write a custom Rust controller for a quadrocopter/drone!

Why?

To learn more about electronics + Rust, microcontrollers, the Rust embedded development environment, and more.

How?

Take a ready-made tutorial such as this one or that one and buy all parts.
I guess, I would go with an arduino-based system for now (simple runtime, shows off Rusts C-FFI and cross-compiling functionality).
