Hi, I'm a bit confused of where to start with 32bit, Naze32, STM32, Stellaris Cortex M4F, DUE, is there any with working simple to use evolving code like MWC and what about GUI ?
Regards Anders

Hi Anders,
baseflight is what you're looking for:
http://github.com/multiwii/baseflight.gitIt is a 32 Bit rewrite of the MultiWii codebase and follows its development more or less closely.
The naze32 is based on an STM32 chip. If you want something simple to use that gets you up and running quickly, the naze is your best bet in the 32 Bit realm, IMO.
There are some people here in the forum working on ports of baseflight/MultiWii to the Stellaris board but nothing materialized yet as far as I know.
Timecop, the developer of baseflight and the guy who makes the naze32 boards also sells an STM32 breakout board to which you can hook up your own IMU. That's what I did with one of my copters and it works flawlessly.
I recommend that you swing by our IRC channel #multiwii on Freenode

Cheers
Andy

Tnx, could i use this one "http://hackaday.com/2010/10/12/arm-prototyping-on-the-cheap-with-stm32-discovery/".
I like to have axcess to I/O

Yes.
Infact you should just get f3discovery, and go off to work on lilvinz cloneport of openpilot cc.

Ok, backorder, what about this "OLIMEX STM32-H407" I have got a bunch of sensors.

Are you looking for a long term electronics and software project or are you looking for something simple that's working and has evolving code and costs US$25?

Not really, cost is not an issue, rather form factor and a platform to evolve with, not on

, as stated I'm new on 32bit but have some experience from arduino(MWC) so i go from there, and well I'm not a coder but i can read, understand and modify it.
What I,m looking for is small,has well developed code and four uart (for GPS,Bluetooth,USB and ?)and i like to be able to use different sensor board.
So if i cannot find a suitable board i guess i have to make one.

Well i ordered a f3discovery, so i go from there thou it's f-ing big.

What about this board, ordered one as well, the pic is a F2 but my is F4
