Our helicopter/aircraft will only do navigation between to level points. First, data (heading, altitude, distance) will be programmed to the microcontroller. Then the microcontroller takes over and flies the aircraft.

For our sensors, we are planning to use three accelerometers (x,y and z), three gyroscopes (x,y and z) and a magnetometer. These will serve as inputs to a microcontroller which computes the aircraft's orientation, altitude, acceleration. And the microcontroller will control the outputs to the motors so that the aircraft will move towards the correct direction.

Our concern is about the stability of the first design and if it will fly and turn to its direction with the use of the four motors in each quadrant.

and also our problem is that our panel would like us to present some theories or computations that will tell that the first design might not be able to fly or stabilize and that given the time frame of one year, we might not be able to finish it.

thanks!
