Learn the five key skills needed to become a quadcopter developer: design, modeling, control, simulation, and implementation. This book provides a crash course on drone development for beginners and can also serve as a comprehensive reference for those who want a detailed guide for future projects.

You'll review key features often missed in other books: a deeper review of controls, step by step modeling, and methods for simulating and designing drones. Although the quadcopter is used as the main example throughout the book, you'll also see how to apply the development knowledge to other aircrafts or aerial systems.
Highly visual and easy to understand, this book features Simulink and Matlab tools, but the skills covered can be used in other environments such as Scilab or other programming languages. Drones To Go merges maker knowledge and technical information with scientific knowledge and design essentials.
What Yoüll Learn
Review the main families of control: geometric, linear, and common dynamic feedback control Understand the mathematics of a quadcopter Follow step-by-step instructions on modeling and control equations Focus on pedagogical development to answer any doubts in the design process

Über den Autor Julio Alberto Mendoza-Mendoza

Julio Alberto MENDOZA-MENDOZA Mechatronics Engineer and Computer Sciences PhD, currently a researcher and professor of mechatronics, bionics, telematics, energy and automotive engineerings at UPIITA IPN, and also a member of the national system of researchers of Mexico, He has 2 books published with Apress, one of them has been translated in China and SouthKorea, his interest areas are robotics, mechatronics, automatic control, AI, programming, electronics, haptics, intellectual property and human languages, He won the prize to the Mexican inventor in 2020 granted by the Mexican ministry of economy. He has currently 8 JCR papers with Springer, IEEE and Elsevier. He was a partial time professor at UNAM from 2018-2020. We dediced to write this book in order to give an upgrade to our previous Apress books and in order to be useful for our projects and teaching activities Orlando GARCIA-PEREZ holds a Master's and Doctoral degree in Sciences in Autonomous Navigation Systems for Air and Underwater Vehicles from the Center for Research and Advanced Studies of the National Polytechnic Institute. Currently serving as a professor-researcher at the Autonomous University of the State of Hidalgo, his research interests encompass autonomous multirotor vehicle control, embedded systems, and optimal control. His passion lies in mobile robotics, with ongoing projects focusing on autonomous navigation with multirotors for tasks such as monitoring, terrain mapping, and disease identification in crops using computer vision and drones. With a background in Computer Systems Engineering, he likes programming, particularly object-oriented programming for embedded systems like Pixhawk using Ardupilot libraries Jorge FONSECA-CAMPOS received a B.S. degree in engineering physics from Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana, CDMX, in 1997 and an M.S. degree in sciences with a specialty in optical physics from Centro de Investigación Científica y de Educación Superior de Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico, in 2021. He is currently pursuing a Ph.D. degree with the Department of Biotechnology and Bioengineering at CINVESTAV IPN. He has been a Professor with UPIITA-IPN since 2001. His research interests include optics, data acquisition systems, solar energy, electronic instrumentation, data analysis, water quality monitoring, biotechnology, and unmanned aerial vehicles.
