Featured Examples
Attitude Control for X-Configuration Quadcopter Using External Input
Use the UAV Toolbox Support Package for PX4® Autopilots to design an attitude controller for an X-configuration quadcopter that uses input from a joystick or radio control transmitter. In this example, you also verify the controller design using PX4 Host Target and SIH in Host Target simulator.
Design and Tune Quadcopter Position Controller for PX4 Autopilot
Use the UAV Toolbox Support Package for PX4® Autopilots to design a position controller for a quadcopter.
Position Tracking for X-Configuration Quadcopter Using Rate Controller
Use the UAV Toolbox Support Package for PX4® Autopilots to design a position controller using rate control for an X-configuration quadcopter. In this example, you also verify the controller design using the PX4 Host Target and jMAVSim simulator.
Run PX4 Software-in-the-Loop Simulation with Quadcopter Plant in Simulink
Use the UAV Toolbox Support Package for PX4 Autopilots to verify a quadcopter controller design by using Software-in-the-Loop (SITL) simulation and simulating the quadcopter plant model in Simulink.
Simulate Manual Control for Fixed-Wing with PX4 Host Target
Use the UAV Toolbox Support Package for PX4® Autopilots to take manual control inputs from Joystick / RC Transmitter and control the fixed-wing flight.
Visualize 3D Scenarios in Unreal Engine with PX4 Host Target Simulation
Use the UAV Toolbox Support Package for PX4® Autopilots to demonstrate 3D scenario Simulation with PX4 Host Target Simulation. For visualization, you can use this example model along with other models running in Simulation-In-Hardware (SIH). This example is compatible with all existing SITL examples.
