	There are many potential applications for the small, relatively inexpensive and flexible Lisa/M. For regular Autopilot boards a ~~full~~ Lisa/M board is needed. For some scenarios just a basic Lisa/M without [[Inertial_Measurement_Units\|IMU]] and barometric pressure sensor is needed, which reduces board cost. Here are some ideas (not all have yet ~~been~~ implemented):		There are many potential applications for the small, relatively inexpensive and flexible [[Lisa/M]].

	* As a servo extender		* As a servo extender
	** Sometimes being able to control seven actuators is just not enough. Large airframes may require flaps or an airbrake and automatic landing facilities. Maybe special ACL/Nav lights, or four cameras with zoom. By using a coupled second basic Lisa/M and connecting this to the master AP board we can extend the amount of servos. Large airframes can also benefit from remote and/or redundant servo drivers.		** Sometimes being able to control seven actuators is just not enough.
