This paper presents an overview on the state of the art in copter drones and their components. It starts by providing an introduction to unmanned aerial vehicles in general, describing their main types, and then shifts its focus mostly to multirotor drones as the most attractive for individual and research use. This paper analyzes various multirotor drone types, their construction, typical areas of implementation, and technology used underneath their construction. Finally, it looks at current challenges and future directions in drone system development, emerging technologies, and future research topics in the area. This paper concludes by highlighting some key challenges that need to be addressed before widespread adoption of drone technologies in everyday life can occur. By summarizing an up-to-date survey on the state of the art in copter drone technology, this paper will provide valuable insights into where this field is heading in terms of progress and innovation.

“…They brought useful values to the UAV development community. For testing software, some researchers used Matlab Simulink to present their UAV model as fixed-wing [8], quadrotor [9], and hybrid [10,11] with the control algorithms as PID [12], Fuzzy-PID [13], Neural network [14], and sliding mode control [15]. Recently, software in the loop simulation (SILS) is developed to present more details in simulation [16].…”

4This paper presents a method for the navigation of drones in GPS-denied Environments based on vision processing. A camera is attached to the drone to fly in full conditions like GPS, video streaming, control waypoint, etc. Then, some information such as the image features and location of the drone is extracted and stored, which is used for the next flight with GPS-denied Environments. The results are shown that the drone positions could estimate with high accuracy.Index Terms4UAV, GPS-Denied, vision

“…In [22,26], the development of a MATLAB toolboxes for implementing and modifying the PX4 autopilot firmware, which is then used to build the final firmware on target autopilot boards, such as Pixhawk 1, is presented. Other references, such as [27,28], directly modify the PX4 autopilot code for their specific usages. Reference [27] changes the control architecture of PX4, replacing the existing control logic with a retrospective cost adaptive control (RCAC), and evaluates its behavior under conditions of uncertainty in the moments of inertia of a quadrotor.…”

“…Reference [27] changes the control architecture of PX4, replacing the existing control logic with a retrospective cost adaptive control (RCAC), and evaluates its behavior under conditions of uncertainty in the moments of inertia of a quadrotor. Similarly, reference [28] develops a new hybrid aerial robot configuration and develops the necessary control and guidance logic for the PX4 autopilot. Finally, software-in-the-loop (SITL) testing is performed by modeling the aircraft in the Gazebo environment.…”

In this study, a novel multirotor configuration has been developed, which utilizes a coaxial counter-rotating propeller with a large diameter at the center and four propellers with smaller diameters on four arms in an X configuration. The research pursues two main objectives. The first objective is to establish a development method for multirotors based on the well-known V-diagram approach in system development. The proposed method enables the design team to analyse and evaluate the multirotor at each stage of the design process, from the system to the component level, and improve the design with greater speed and accuracy. Additionally, the proposed approach can be integrated with various optimization methods, if necessary, to achieve an optimal design. The second objective is to provide the proof-of-concept of the novel multirotor configuration. This objective is pursued across different evaluation sections, from evaluating individual components to fully evaluating the multirotor, to assess the performance of this novel configuration and identify its advantages and disadvantages. The results of various evaluations demonstrate the proposed development process's practicality and proves that the novel configuration is operational and competitive with conventional multirotors in various applications.
