On the topic of rocket flight computers, here's a link to an FC I built last year for my model rocket. It does thrust vectoring and some rudimentary navigation. The control loops on this thing run at 200hz though. It's got a state machine for knowing what to do at each stage of flight as well.

If you analyze the physics, you find that the way the inertia works out is that smaller things need shorter control cycles. The relevant timescales for large objects ends up being longer.

Yeah that makes sense! A lot more can go wrong on smaller things in a short amount of time
