NotFastEnuf/NFE_Silverware

Silverware is an open-source flight controller firmware developed by GitHub user silver13 for the H8 mini, BWhoop B03, and Eachine E011/E011C FCs. It was forked and further refined by GitHub user NotFastEnuf

Silverware is a firmware for some micro quadcopters, especially the whoop FPV racing.
Silverware supports level mode and acro mode. Also it can change the the settings for custom builds, or to adapt to personal preferences.
By default, Silverware changes modes, tune PIDs, calibrate accelerometer or save settings by stick sequences(also called gestures).
For example, the Frsky QX7 radio transmitter switches the FC's mode between level and acro by moving the right stick as show below.
