Developped by: tn.linkedin.com/in/Trifi To be able to use the simulator, donwload and install Flight Gear: http://www.flightgear.org/download/

A matlab based ground station for aerial vehicle, The program allows:

  • Real time data acquisition, display and analyses of raw data from GPS, Gyroscope, magnetometer, altitude, temperature, pressure and speed controller sensors.
  • Itinerary drawing and coordinates sending.
  • Simulink based simulator algorithm for offline testing.
  • Real time 3D display of the vehicle position in Flight Gear Simulator.
  • A PID algorithm tester for autopilot algorithmes.
