The Design and Implementation of a Custom Platform for the Experimental Tuning of a Quadcopter Controller

The Design and Implementation of a Custom Platform for the Experimental Tuning of a Quadcopter Controller

This paper describes the development process of the quadcopter-based unmanned flying platform, designed for testing and experimentation purposes. The project features custom-made hardware, which includes the prototype quadcopter frame and the flight controller, and software solutions, such as contro...
