Quadrotor dynamics modelling using simulink

This simulator models the translational and rotational dynamics of a quadrotor.

You are now following this Submission

The following things are modelled:
- Quadrotor dynamics
- Motor dynamics
- Kalman filter for state estimation
- Simple sensor model/ ADC conversion
The following are not modelled:
- Propeller dynamics
- Control laws
- Power subsystem

This sim can be used for:
- System feasibility studies
- System performance assessment and trade-offs
- Control law performance evaluation

I am sorry but I do not entertain emails regarding any type of support.

Details about Quadrotor dynamics can be found in this paper:

Important - Please run KF_setp.m to initialize Kalman Filter variables.
Do not forget to declare system input variables and initial conditions once you are in the sim. Motor variables have to be declared by opening the "Motor Dynamics" block mask.
