Drone Simulation and Control, Part 3: How to Build the Flight Code

This video describes how to create quadcopter flight software and program a drone from the control architecture developed in the last video. It covers how to process the raw sensor readings and use them with the controllers to calculate motor speed commands.

Check out "Drone Control and the Complementary Filter" on Brian's Channel:    • Drone Control and the Complementary Filter  

In addition to those two functions, the flight control software is also responsible for reference command generation, data logging, and fault protection. You’ll see how each of these contribute to getting a quadcopter to hover safely.

The quadcopter example in Simulink® is used for drone programming as a starting point for the flight software and you’ll learn how to load and run the code on the Parrot® Minidrone directly from Simulink.

You can also program drones and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) using an autopilot such as PX4. You can interface and deploy MATLAB and Simulink model to PX4 using the PX4 Hardware Support Package in UAV Toolbox
