REBECCA CREED, MECHANICAL ENGINEERING, UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON ANDREA GILLIS, AEROSPACE ENGINEERING, UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI URVISH PATEL, EE-COMPE ACCEND, UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI MAY 22, 2013 System Identification of Rotorcraft
Goals and Objectives The overall goal is to create the dynamic model of the Aeroquad drone and document the process of finding the dynamic model so that it can be repeated easily and efficiently for any rotorcraft. The main objective is to develop a dynamic model that can be used to make an autopilot for an UAV. Allow first responders to easily use the UAV Easy to collect information and make informed decisions in disaster situations
