• Rotor #1 rotates positively with respect to the z-axis. It is located parallel to the xy-plane, -45 degrees from the x-axis. • Rotor #2 rotates negatively with respect to the body's z-axis. It is located parallel to the xy-plane, -135 degrees from the x-axis. • Rotor #3 has the same rotation direction as rotor #1. It is located parallel to the xy-plane, 135 degrees from the x-axis.

• Rotor #4 has the rotation direction as rotor #2. It is located parallel to the xy-plane, 45 degrees from the x-axis. This example uses the approach defined by Prouty[1] and adapted to a heavy-lift quadcopter by Ponds et al[2].

Control For control, the quadcopter uses a complementary filter to estimate attitude, and Kalman filters to estimate position and velocity. Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne Crackeado more. The example implements. • A PID controller for pitch/roll control • A PD controller for yaw • A PD controller for position control in Noth-East-Down coordinates The controllerVars file contains variables pertinent to the controller. The estimatorVars file contains variables pertinent to the estimator. The example implements the controller and estimator as model subsystems, enabling several combinations of estimator and controllers to be evaluated for design.

To provide inputs to the quadcopter (in pitch, roll, yaw, North (X), East (Y), Down (Z) coordinates ), use one of the following and change the VSS_COMMAND variable in the workspace. • An Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) to measure the angular rates and translational accelerations. • A camera for optical flow estimation. • A sonar for altitude measurement. The example stores the characteristics for the sensors in the file sensorVars. To include sensor dynamics with these measurements, you can change the VSS_SENSORS variable in the workspace.

Environment The models implement several Aerospace Blockset™ environment blocks, including those for atmosphere and gravity models. To include these models, you can change the VSS_ENVIRONMENT variable in the workspace to toggle between variable and fixed environment models. Linearization The model uses the trimLinearizeOpPoint to linearize the nonlinear model of the quadcopter using Simulink Control Design (R).

Testing To make sure that the trajectory generation tool works properly, the example implements a test in the trajectoryTest file. For more information on how to do this, see the Simulink Control Design ) Visualization You can visualize the variables for the quadcopter in one of the following ways. • Using Simulation Data Inspector. • Using the flight instrument blocks. • Toggling between the different visualization variant subsystems. You can toggle between the different variant subsystems by changing the VSS_VISUALIZATION variable. Note that one of these variants is a FlightGear animation.
