README

        # **Quadcopter Drone Model in Simscape**

Copyright 2021-2023 The MathWorks, Inc.

This example models a quadcopter that navigates a path to deliver a package. 

* **Electric motors and battery** enable estimation of current draw and drone range

* **CAD files of the chassis and propellers** model the mechanical system

* **Cascaded PID controllers** adjust motor speeds to control altitude and attitude

* **Path following and speed controllers** provide high-level commands 

* **Python queries to a weather database** obtain location-specific wind conditions

* **Wind gust profiles** test stability of drone controllers

* **Profitability analysis in a MATLAB App** enables exploring technical and business tradeoffs

Open the project file Quadcopter_Drone.prj to get started.
