This course takes you through the basic elements of building a physically based quadrotor drone simulation, and introduces elements of control theory, such as the feedback loop and PID controllers. You will learn about representing rotation in 3D space using rotation matrices, quaternions and Euler angles. You will learn to implement a discrete-time PID controller, and an entire PID-based controller structure for attitude and position control for non-aggresive flight. You will be provided with a reference implementation in Python to experiment with.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the course materials?

You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.

Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don’t have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That’s up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
