Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

I am looking to learn more about control theory, like getting the quadcopter to hover and follow a trajectory autonomously, and would like to find a ready to fly kit that will let me dig through the source code and implement my own controller as a learning exercise. While I would like to be able to build a drone from scratch at some point, I would rather focus on the source code atm.

"Thanks Craig!
For the battery charger, the seller doesn't ship to my part of the neighborhood, so I looked at another alternative instead.

"Thank you very much for your reply Tim, :D It so happens that I am taking that course, so perhaps great minds think alike and all that? ;)I'm almost through the first part, and it's been quite challenging, and I really want to solidify the concepts…"

"Dear Craig,
Thanks very much for your reply. I assume the hawk you speak of is the onboard computer? The Pixhawk (or other similiar device)? It seems like I would have to assemble this myself, so would you mind doing me another kindness by pointing…"

Hi all, I'm hoping that my question is not too open ended.I'm interested in learning how to code the control systems for quadcopters. As a start, I would like to look into solving the equations and coding for hovering maybe? There are a lot of…
