Quadcopter Project waypoint issues

How do I let the simulated Quadcopter follow the waypoints in Simulation?

Hi Tristan,

Can you be more specific on how you simulated the Quadcopter? Are you following any examples such as the following:

There are also webinar videos available on the MathWorks website like the one below:

Please provide more details on your workflow and be more specific on your questions so that the community can provide better inputs.

Hi Michelle,

thanks for answering. I started the quadcopter-project like described in your link. At first I didn't changed anything, just to see if its working. The problem I got is that if I start the simulation the quadcopter just flies upwards but isn't following the waypoints at all. I thought I should fix this at first before start anything else.

In the end I want to implement a software used in an real quadcopter and simulate its behavior.

What I need to know now is how the simulation uses the waypoint datas from the trajectory-tool?

I concur. The documentation is, poor to say the least on the example, but I am still very glad the example is there, and all that work done for it. From one of the videos, I know I can change the signals in a control block for basic movement, but I too would like to know if those signals can be generated based on the asbtrajectory tool. I would also love to know how to or see an example of real time AI flight control logic based on the camera. I can dream right?

Hello I am also stuck at the same point. My quadcopter fly up and down to 1.1 altitude as provided by the default project in Simulink. I also generate the trajectory using Trajectory tool. Can you please guide me what to do next to make it to fly to waypoints one by one?
