Abstract:
The control system of UAV represents the heart of the UAV; the ability of UAV to do a certain task is mainly dependent on accuracy of control system inside it. This thesis is a project to build a control system for a Quadcopter platform.
This is a report of a two section project: theoretical analysis section which contains the Quadcopter modeling and the developed PID algorithm for controlling the Quadcopter, and hardware implementation where the components of the Quadcopter were chosen and the interface between them was accomplished
The Final code was developed then implemented into Arduino Uno microcontroller and the Quadcopter was able to hover. To achieve better response and more stable flight it‟s recommended to use both the gyro and accelerometer.
