ABSTRACT

In recent years Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have demonstrated their capabilities and their potential to be used in several applications. The UAVs can move freely in a 3D space, which is a tremendous advantage over ground vehicles. Today they have many applications like mapping, inspection, surveying, aerial photography, agriculture, search and rescue robots, etc. Currently, there are many types of UAVs, they can be classified as fixed wing, single rotor, and multirotor. In this work, we focus in multirotor UAVs, and in particular we focus in quadrotors and hexarotors.
