One or more embodiments of the present disclosure include features and functionality that reduce size, weight, and power (SWaP) specifications for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) by combining flight control functionality with mission processing functionality within common hardware. By implementing flight control and mission processing functionality using common hardware, systems and methods described herein decrease costs associated with developing, producing, servicing, and operating UAVs. Moreover, the systems and methods described herein include features that reduce the SWaP for the UAV while providing further redundancies that maintain reliability of the UAV.
