Design and implementation of three-dimensional simulator for control of laboratory model helicopter
The paper discusses the problems of design and implementation of three-dimensional simulator for control of laboratory model helicopter. The research is realized under student project at the Department of Automatic Control and Electronics of Faculty of Electrical Engineering in Sarajevo. For this purpose the HUMUSOFT CE150 laboratory helicopter model was used. In order to verify various control algorithms the 3D simulator is designed. Simulator was developed in Matlab/Simulink environment using the Virtual Reality Modelling Language (VRML). Three-dimensional helicopter was built by using 3D Studio Max script. The quality of this simulator is tested during the helicopter motion with PID controllers.
