Communication and Control Software Development for Experimental Unmanned Aerial System – Selected Issues

Recently the functionality and applicability of Unmanned Aerial Systems have been dynamically growing. In the paper such an experimental system, based on the “MP-02 Czajka” ultra light plane, is presented. Generation of the C source code for the autopilot firmware in the Matlab environment is discussed. Furthermore, several issues raised during implementation of the STANAG 4586 communication protocol are considered.
