Hexacopter Construction, Autopilot Installation And Flight Testing
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Aerospace Engineering
Abstract
Flight data are required to design a control system of a hexacopter. In this paper a hexacopter has been constructed, flight test has been done by using autopilot. Roll, pitch and yaw data are collected and has been plotted.
Keywords
