Designing, manufacturing and controlling agriculture quadcopter drone for spraying pesticides

Abstract

This paper presents the design, manufacture and control of four-propeller drones (Quadcopter) for spraying pesticides. The linear model of quadcopter system is built based on mechanical structure, dynamics, and aerodynamics. The Quadcopter system control is built on 4 components including position control, tilt control, distribution control and motor control. The simulation results are verified by Matlab-Simulink to verify the designed mathematical model and control system.
