Guidelines

The main objective of the thesis is to analyze currently available hardware and software solutions in the field of RC models autopilots. Based on the analysis, an extendable framework for creating a customizable autopilot system for the flying RC models with an online telemetry should be designed and implemented. A prototype hardware and software solution will be developed using the framework. The solution should be used in RC airplanes as an autopilot mechanism with online real time telemetry. It will provide common functions, such as return home, fly by wire, or waypoints.
