Controlling

Hi

 Can anyone tell me how to control the helicopter in the air so that no environmental changes affect it.

    I guess you mean an arduCopter?  I guess you're asking, "how can I stop the quad from drifting?".

     

    The truth is that it will always move around.  You can change the trims on your transmitter somewhat to counteract constant forces (like maybe a light breeze or an off balance center of gravity) ... but to actively counteract non-contant forces (like changes in wind) you need a GPS attached for position hold (and you need to be outside).  also you need a sonar for altitude hold (unless you're higher than 2 or 3 meters in which case the barometer will be fine).
