Quattro demonstrates fully autonomous mission

November 23, 2020

The Quattro autopilot successfully demonstrated autonomous takeoff, waypoint tracking, and auto landing with minimal input from the user. The flight was conducted with Applied Navigation’s 760-size electric helicopter at a test site in rural Virginia.

Applied Navigation’s waypoint tracking guidance is unique because it forward-predicts in time. This makes the logic more complex but allows vehicles flying with Quattro to anticipate turns more like a human does. Smooth flight in various wind conditions gives the payload a better platform to do its job.
