🎯 Objective

The ZeroPilot program looks to develop a fully in-house control system with a student-built autopilot capable of autonomously operating fixed-wing aircraft and rotorcraft. Though daunting, it has been done twice before, notably with our PicPilot autopilot.

\uD83E\uDD14 Problem Statement

At the time of writing, the ZP2 program failed due to a multitude of issues surrounding lack of experience from the EE team and the inability to bring up the board in time. ZP1.5 was used in the 2022 competition season, but the architecture of the system has been questioned as it was merely inherited from a team rather than designed ourselves. ZP3 aims to address many of the hardware changes that are requested by the team.
