# Basic Assembly

A typical autopilot "minimal" system running PX4 consists of a flight controller connected to a power system, GPS, external compass (optional), radio control system (optional) and/or telemetry radio system (optional).

This section contains topics that explain how to assemble such a system for different [flight controllers](https://px4.gitbook.io/px4-user-guide/drone_parts/flight_controller).

:::tip Quickstart guides are only provided for a few controllers. Other controllers will have similar connections. Additional information may be available in [flight controllers](https://px4.gitbook.io/px4-user-guide/drone_parts/flight_controller) pages or in manufacturer documentation. :::

* See [Peripherals](https://px4.gitbook.io/px4-user-guide/drone_parts/peripherals) for information about connecting sensors and other peripherals (e.g. airspeed sensor for planes).
* See [Airframe Builds](https://px4.gitbook.io/px4-user-guide/airframes) for complete assembly examples on different vehicle frames.
* See [Multicopter Racer Setup](https://px4.gitbook.io/px4-user-guide/airframes/frames_multicopter/config_mc/racer_setup) for racer-specific assembly and configuration information.
