Here is a picture of the test bench software so far. There are several knots to tie, but things are going ok. The data in the graph is random data as the database and real data from the Quad is next on the plate. We are soon stepping over to what we call iteration 4 – Design of the regulation system!

As announced during our first presentation, we will have our requirement specification out on the website. Those who were present at the end of our presentation know that we have a few updates to do to our requirements document. As soon as this is in order there will be a possibility to view all of our system requirements at this website. Stay “tuned”.

Welcome!

This is the public webpages regarding our bachelor assignment. We will build a radio controlled quadcopter by using regular easily accessible parts and develop our own controller-software.

Some of our overall goals:

  • Achieve and maintain a stable hover
  • Abstract the complex maneuvers to keep the controls simple
