The Explorer is a rotorcraft.
It is used to test
- control loops such as PID and INDI
- simultaneous datalinks such as Xbee and Wifibroadcast
- vision algorithm
The aircraft fly an Apogee or a Tawaki autopilot board.
A on board Raspberry Pi compagnon board is connected to the autopilot to provide additional communication and processing task.
A on ground Raspberry PI board is connected to the ground station to provide additional communication task.
