# SmartAP PRO

## Introduction

[SmartAP PRO](https://sky-drones.com/smartap-pro) Autopilot is the latest generation of professional flight control systems for multirotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, capable of fully autonomous flight.&#x20;

The system has a powerful microcontroller, multiple redundant 9-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) (Gyroscopes, Accelerometers, Magnetometer) with temperature stabilization, integrated telemetry module, and an external [GNSS](/avionics/smartap-gnss.md) module with an integrated magnetometer. SmartAP supports any type of multirotor UAV with outstanding navigation and precision control.
