The purpose of this study is to build an autonomous quadcopter which is capable of automated detection of landing zones and landing.To ensure this there are important steps linked together.The first step is to build a quadcopter that can fly.We have used a commercially available quadcopter platform and an Ardu Pilot Mega control card to build a low cost, easy to implement, and stable platform.An open source firmware, named Arducopter, is used for the control card.This system can take-off, land, hover, and follow a given flight path.To my family. . .
