Control system ideas for eVTOL - Manned aerial vehicle

Sudeep AJ
Sudeep AJ 11 days ago

I am new to the field of Avionics, I know the basics of Control Systems and Electronics. I have to develop the avionics system for this and I just want a little guidance on where and how to start. What are the control mechanisms used for these? Are there any commercially available products that I can use here like CUBEPilot which is for Unmanned aerial vehicles. 

Thank you for reading my question. I look forward to hear some valuable information which would help with my project.

    Sundeep, if you're planning to contribute to manned aviation, I believe you should go for the formal basics. There 'll be no shortcut internet pointer.

    This is really a quadcopter. There are tons of resources and open source controls available for DIY quadcopters. They have built 3 axis gyros and accelerometers for pitch, yaw, and roll. All those tie together with the desired flight vector to keep all 4 motors at the right speeds.

    Here are some useful quadcopter links:

    https://px4.io/ for autopilot hardware/software

    https://www.dronecode.org/ for forums about drones and controlling them

    https://ardupilot.org/copter/ is an open source project for drone controllers

    https://developer.dji.com/ if you want to code with DJI stuff

    https://www.hackster.io/contests for examples of drone projects and contests

    Thank you for the reply.

    Could you please tell in specific if there are any open source or commercial hardwares available for the control mechanisms for Quadcopter??

    There are dozens of varieties available, and dozens of vendors. This is just an example dronenodes.com/.../   

    Depending on the size of your model, the propellers, brushless motors , and motor controllers are another facet to engineer. 

    You could even start the learning process with a microduino quadcopter kit.

    Too many links can result in the post being automatically sent to moderation as suspected spam. Once it has been reviewed, it should however be restored.
