Recruitment at AeroTéc

AeroTéc1 min read

The recruitment at AeroTéc consisted of two phases:

  1. Introductory report on basic eletronic concepts
  2. Program an aircraft simulator with control implemantion based on the book Small Unmanned Aircraft: Theory and Practice

1st Phase

The report focused on the basic components one is expected to find in a basic small aircraft, such as LiPo bateries, ESCs and motors.

As a final objective, it was also expected to obtain the capacity of an ideal batery given some flight parameters and aircraft information.

2nd Phase

The book given which you can acess in the link above explains in detail how to implement a simulation for a MAV(miniature air vehicle).

The purpose of this was to do chapters 1 to 6 which approaches the following topics:

  • Coordinate Frames
  • Kinematics and Dynamics
  • Forces and Moments
  • Linear Design Models
  • Autopilot Design Using Successive Loop Closure

The program was done in Matlab following the instructions given in the uav book.

This day I received my diploma officializing my membership in AeroTéc as an active member of the eletronics team of the project Olisspo Air Team:
