Quadcopter w/ Intel Edison

Andrea — Mon, 22 Dec 2014 23:32:00 GMT

Hi,

I've recently programmed the autopilot for my Arduino quadcopter.
I'd like to migrate to Intel Edison but I need to know some things.

1) is there an easy way to communicate point-to-point (For example PC -> Intel Edison) using WIFI without having unbearable delays?

2) I need a PWM library where I can set the PWM period, in my case less than 5ms.

3) Are there I2C and SPI libraries?

thank you for your support

So now I only need to know if Edison's WIFI can acts as Access Point

Thank you.
I just completed an Arduino Yun Wifi-based quadcopter . Next step an Edison one !
