Fuzzy logic based pid control of quadcopter altitude and attitude stabilization

This paper presents the development and implementation fuzzy logic based PID control algorithm for a quadcopter system. The quadcopter consists four motors with four propellers placed on the ends. The rotors are directed upwards and they are placed in a square formation with equal distance from the...
