🚁 Quadcopter Flight Dynamics Lab: Rotor Thrust, PID Control, Wind and Battery Endurance

6-DOF quadrotor and hexarotor flight-dynamics lab: rotor thrust and mixer, cascaded PID tuning with step responses, wind and gusts, ground effect, motor-out failure and battery endurance from actuator-disc power. Unlike the existing drone demos it exposes the whole control loop and checks itself against closed-form theory.

6-DOF quadrotor and hexarotor lab: rotor thrust and mixer, cascaded PID tuning with step responses, wind and gusts, ground effect, one-motor-out failure and battery endurance from actuator-disc power, flown over a Blender-built survey site. Unlike the existing drone demos it exposes the whole control loop and checks itself against closed-form theory (double-integrator step, Cheeseman-Bennett, E/P endurance, best-endurance speed).
