Abstract

In this paper, an attitude controller is implemented and studied on an Octorotor flying robot. In this Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), motors number is extended to eight motors. Also, mechanical and electrical subsystems is designed and performed based on the considered Quadrotor. To this end, the robot stability is obtained using the stated controller. Then, this flying robot is tested under the flight condition on a test apparatus. For monitoring the Attitude angles of this UAV, a PID controller is utilized using Mission Planner software by USB port. Finally, Implementation and simulation results are compared for the designed attitude controller in MATLAB/Simulink.
