About Me:

As a control engineer i like thinks to move automatically. i have been dealing with industrial robotics cells for almost 5 years. During the last months flying objects, especially rotary UAV's, starts to spark my interest so i bought 2 quadrotors to understand how does this thing work. They took almost all my free time in weekends and holidays and because of them problems start to arise with my wife :-)


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

I am very interesting in rotary UAV's, namely quadrotor. But since normal small quadrotors are already developed from many people and being in use for a while, i am thinking to build a big quadrotor with a payload of at least 10 Kg. I think something like this have never been build before. But if that is possible or not! I do not know either. For me at least i will have something to do on the weekends.

"very good idea, Adam. This could be very helpful for policemen to track a thief or a car(may be with the help of FPV system)."

Hello all,I have read some paper about quadrotor. almost of them state that it is nearly impossible to control the quadrotor using a PID controller because of the non-linearity, cross coupling and big disturbances (wind) (See equations). So if it is…
