Simple GUI Wireless Controller of Quadcopter
This paper presents the development of remotely operated Quadcopter system. The Quadcopter is controlled through a Graphical User Interface (GUI) where the communication between GUI and Quadcopter is constructed by using wireless communication system. The Quadcopter balancing condition is sensed by FY90 controller and IMU 5DOF sensor. For smooth landing, Quadcopter is equipped with ultrasonic sensor. All signals from sensors are processed by Arduino Uno micro-controller board and output from the Arduino Uno micro-controller board is implemented to control Quadcopter propellers. The GUI is designed using Visual Basic 2008 Express as interfacing communication between the Proportional, Integral and Derivative (PID) controller and the Quadcopter system.
