 ### Частота сэмплов
 
-Большинство IMU могут обновлять данные с разной частотой. В полетных контроллерах обычно используется частота обновления от 500 Гц до 8 кГц. Чем выше частота сэмплов, тем выше точность управления полетом, но и больше нагрузка на микроконтроллер. В Flix используется частота сэмплов 1 кГц.

 Частота сэмплов устанавливается методом `setSampleRate()`. В Flix используется частота 1 кГц:
