Title DESIGN AND CONTROL OF AN AUTONOMOUS HELICOPTER

Advisor
Demetriou, Michael A., ME

Availability unrestricted

Abstract
Through extensive testing, control scheme development, and mathematical modeling, this project has taken the first steps in automating a miniature helicopter. This report contains the completed controls and equations of motion, as well as the steps taken to create a sensor-driven board used to control the helicopter. The control board with the completed control scheme, which allows for the autonomous flight of a remote control helicopter to a pre-selected position, remains only to be installed onto the helicopter itself.
