Because of the mechanical simplicity of the aircraft, the design challenges primarily centered on the electrical and computer engineering (ECE) tasks, and was used as a capstone design experience in an undergraduate ECE program. An onboard microcontroller based system uses a network of digital sensors and differential thrust for autonomous attitude control. A wireless telemetry and command link allows a user to monitor the vehicle, control its direction of flight, and for flight safety control. 2012-10 text Proceedings 0884-5123 0074-9079 http://hdl.handle.net/10150/581745 International Telemetering Conference Proceedings en_US http://www.telemetry.org/ Copyright © held by the author; distribution rights International Foundation for Telemetering International Foundation for Telemetering |
