Drone Simulation and Control, Part 1: Setting Up the Control Problem

[@BrianBDouglas]

Hi everyone! I hope you enjoyed this video. If you have any questions or comments you'd like me to see, please leave them on this comment so that I get notified and can respond. Cheers!

[@shivamgaur530]

Hi Brian ! I want to know about how you make these video's. I want to know behind the camera work. PLZ REPLY ASAP

[@BrianBDouglas]

I draw everything in photoshop and record the whole process using a screen capture program called capto. I edit the video in Final Cut Pro where I speed it up, add the voiceover, and animate some of the images.

[@shivamgaur530]

@@BrianBDouglas Thanks and which Photoshop do you use? Are these software paid or not ? This way of making goes same with the videos which u make on control system on your main channel ??

[@BrianBDouglas]

I use Photoshop CC and this is the same process I use for making videos on my channel.

[@benallia8262]

thank you brian, when someone asks me "who taught you control engineering ?", i say "he's brian douglas", love you so much man!!

[@mauelcorsetti]

Brian you literally helped me pass my control modules at my university, nice to see you work with Mathworks!

Drone hobbyist for 1 year. Best Explanation of mechanics so far! TY.

[@suneelthondu9117]

This tells us how education was simple in understanding, Playing ,Learning. We can't feel pressure until your videos are ended Sir..Thank you so much

[@YUVRAJMOT]

I have never seen any video which explains this concept with so much clarity. I can now have an intuitive idea of the dynamics of quadcopters. Thanks a lot for this. It would be helpful in one of my projects.

[@Ganaton2]

This was best 14 minutes of my day. Thank you

[@leadeeeeer]

I am one of your most dedicated fans!,,,Your name became like a brand for me :), thanks for the videos. please don't ever stop

[@Chikimingo]

thank you very much! i’m a fan ever since I studied control system course in the university. mathworks clearly done a smart move by working with you, with their software and your explanation the new generation of engineers shell rise

[@shabadsachitaksaal]

I wish I had a teacher like Brian. You won my respect, Sir!!

[@manishkumarmeena4891]

This series made me happy ... This videos have full information about pic controller 👌👌 Thank sir ...🔥🔥

Brian you are the best!

[@andreadenichilo3916]

Please continue this serie is frikin awesome, when Will the second video be out?

[@BrianBDouglas]

Thanks! Working on the 5th video in the series now. They will post periodically over the next month or two.

There is a direct link at the end of the video. But you can find it here: kzbin.info

Thanks for making lives simpler!

[@renatobritto4096]

11:19 supposing both motors are spinning in a clockwise direction, the spin direction of the drone itself is counter-clockwise

Because of you, I am proud to be an Electrical Engineer

I want to simulate Quadcopter in matlab .... Can u please help me

[@khushalpathakkp]

Can you please tell me the frequency of ultrasound used in this project?

[@Travellerrrr]

Hi , a question at 12:45 you show the mixer values, I cant understand the roll sign. I would think that the roll sign for positive roll(from left to right) on the "Front Right Motor" should be negative , not positive if it will be positive as you wrote , there be more thrust on the right side and the drone will roll to the left(negative roll in Right Hand system)

[@ratuldas4153]

Hey, I had the same confusion. Let me know if you think this is correct M_fr = T+Y+P+R M_fl = T-Y-P+R M_br = T+Y-P-R M_bl = T-Y+P-R

[@mathurhp]

You are an amazing instructor. Thank you.

[@badejavuade6774]

Spot on! Best control video for quads I’ve watched. I am curious to how I can apply this to a hobby Zynq quadcopter I am building. Thanks for the animated explanation. I hope the workflow will be applicable to non parrot dev.

[@wiloberlies9598]

Nice job Brian, this is a very cool project/series; thank you for doing this!

[@gorilla543210]

very nice video explaining the detail about Drone configuration and control flow! really appreciate your hard work!

[@amnaqizilbash2795]

Are there any videos related to simulations of hexacopters and octocopters? (simulink)

[@gowtham2775]

at 6:50 u said, it is an underactuated system(4 motors and 6 DOF) hence all directions cannot be controlled. But it's the same case with hexacopter(6 motors) and octacopter (8 motors). Little confused. Waiting for your reply. TIA :)

[@BrianBDouglas]

That's true, but only because the motors for a hexacopter and octacopter are aligned in the same axis. The point I was trying to make was that a quadcopter is necessarily underactuated because there are only 4 actuators, whereas, something with 6 or 8 actuators might not be. For example, imagine a hexacopter where each motor is on its own side of a square frame. This could then travel directly in all 6 DoF. Did that help?

[@gowtham2775]

@@BrianBDouglas So depending on the motor placement hexacopter could be under or to the mark. Makes sense, thank you :) btw I bought parrot mini-drone after finishing your lecture series. It's fun implementing... :)

Hi Brian, I am wondering where in the Quadcopter Flight Simulation Model I can find the nonlinear equations of the dynamic system?

[@moniruzzamansohag440]

@Brian, can I use this drone to launch upon a PIR sensor signal?

[@fernando.liozzi.41878]

Hello, I have several complete quadcopter carcasses, with the intention of making them fly with a TM4C123GH6PM (TIVA C from TI). I have made many applications using Simulink Code Generator for dsPIC, PIC18, Arduino and ARM. It will be possible that with this series of videos, I can finish my project of making my own quadrocopters fly?. I have made and do many control applications for the oil industry with systems embedded in microcontrollers. Thanks.

Could you please help me to establish UAVs mathematical modeling?

Hi bryan, just to ask how can i linearize my induction motor driving the pump so that i can get the transfer function of it for a control design. right now what i have is the mathematical model of the induction motor and confuse what to do next. please advise thanks

[@YongMae-f3u]

진짜 감사합니다

[@martintrost815]

fortunately, or unfortunately, my tendency has changed to not watching any other person's videos ever since I became acquainted with your lectures:-) I only want to know how it is possible to have thorough and well organized playlists of your videos. For example, the series of "Drone Simulation and Control" is not present in your own channel and I ran into it when I was watching your sensor fusion videos! Thanks.

[@91722854]

are there any cheaper alternatives to parrot drone to do control on?

[@omerbilgin5323]

keep going on this topic pls. Because we like learn on aircraft app.

Now I'm doing code with stateflow. Are there series of videos explaining the use of state machines for control applications? Thank you.

[@arturevskiy]

Yes! Please see here: www.mathworks.com/videos/tech-talks/state-machines.html

[@roubarizkallah2172]

Thank you so much!!! Your video made me understand core concepts I had to master to start a drone simulation project. In my python class we were given this project about drones with a source code licensed from the MIT when we never even took in class what a drone was or how to manipulate scipy and matplotlib modules/packages. I'm not sure what's the difference between modules, packages, libraries and subpackages, would be nice if someone could clarify to me that point, thanks! :)
