This example models a quadcopter that navigates a path to deliver a package.
- Electric motors and battery enable estimation of current draw and drone range
- CAD files of the chassis and propellers model the mechanical system
- Cascaded PID controllers adjust motor speeds to control altitude and attitude
- Path following and speed controllers provide high-level commands
- Python queries to a weather database obtain location-specific wind conditions
- Wind gust profiles test stability of drone controllers
- Profitability analysis in a MATLAB App enables exploring technical and business tradeoffs
