A vehicle controller for operating an autonomous vehicle includes an inertial measurement unit (IMU) configured measure specific forces acting upon the autonomous vehicle, and a flight controller configured to execute a high-speed control loop to periodically update commands to a plurality of control actuators for controlling a position or an attitude of the autonomous vehicle based on data from the IMU regarding the specific forces acting upon the autonomous vehicle. The vehicle controller also includes a mission computer including a processor programmed to control a mission of the autonomous vehicle. The vehicle controller also includes a cellular data radio configured to wirelessly communicate via a cellular network. The vehicle controller also includes a housing containing the IMU, the flight controller, the mission computer, and the cellular data radio. A method of operating an autonomous vehicle is also provided
