Those are good points. While I can see rust flying within the next few years, I dont see it in flight controls for a while yet. That said I'm aware of c++ flight control software which seems insane. And that seems to be the trend. Rust does target embedded so there is no reason not to try and move it in that direction, though ada seems a much better choice.
- thesuperbigfrog 7y agoAgreed. The PicoRV32 mentioned in the article's "WHERE TO GO FROM HERE" section has its own crate: https://docs.rs/picorv32/0.1.3/picorv32/ https://docs.rs/picorv32/0.1.3/picorv32/ C/C++ have been great for embedded work, but Ada and Rust are better alternatives in my opinion. They are safer, more powerful, and more secure.
