+# F4BY Flight Controller MCU upgrade
+
+
+## Howto
+replace old MCU STM32F407VGT (1MB Flash) with STM32F427VET rev3 or above (2MB Flash)
+
+## Features
+
+ - Full Ardupilot features support (exclude LUA Script)
+
+
+## Loading Firmware
+
+Initial firmware load can be done with DFU by plugging in USB with the
+boot solder pads connected. Then you should load the "with_bl.hex"
+firmware, using your favourite DFU loading tool.
