![[Series Announcement] ROS2 Mastery: A Comprehensive ROS2 Guide for Students and Researchers](https://quad-drone-lab.co.kr/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/image-11-768x429.png)
Hello! I’m Aiden from the Marketing Team. To the university students majoring in robotics and the researchers developing robot systems in the field: Welcome to the world of ROS2 (Robot Operating System 2)! In modern robotics development, ROS2 has become a necessity, not an option. However, the vast concepts and complex configurations encountered when first…
Hello, this is QUAD Drone Laboratory.I’m Geunchan Lee, Senior Researcher at QUAD Drone Lab. In the previous article, we reviewed the design process and component selection for the Control & Communication System of the 911 FALCON drone. We covered the selection criteria for key components including the Flight Controller and Companion Computer responsible for flight…

Hello! This is QUAD Drone Lab. We have finally reached the end of our series on PX4 MAVSDK C++ programming. So far, we have built a solid foundation in autonomous flight—starting from the architecture of MAVSDK, receiving telemetry data, executing takeoff/landing (Action) and waypoint missions (Mission), and finally mastering precision Offboard control that issues commands…

Hello! This is Aiden from the Marketing Team. In our previous episode, we explored how to enhance the reliability of autonomous flight software through custom logging and automated integration testing using gtest. By now, you have built a solid foundation for controlling drones using MAVSDK C++. However, when starting a serious autonomous drone project in…

Hello! This is Aiden from the Marketing Team. In our previous sessions, we explored various methodologies for actual drone control, including Offboard mode. However, when developing real-world robotics software in university labs or corporate environments, you quickly realize that debugging and verifying system stability often takes much longer than writing the initial code. Due to…

Hello! I’m Aiden from the Marketing Team. In our previous series, we’ve covered receiving drone sensor data (Telemetry), performing basic Actions (takeoff/landing), and autonomous flight following multiple waypoints (Mission). However, to conduct advanced robotics research—such as camera-based (Vision) obstacle avoidance, AI target tracking, or multi-vehicle Swarm flight—simply following a pre-defined path is not enough. The…

Hello! This is Aiden from the Marketing Team. In our previous post (Part 6), we mastered the basic control loop—arming the drone using the Action API, taking off into the sky, and landing safely back on the ground. However, a robot that only moves up and down in one spot can hardly be called a…

Hello! This is Aiden from the Marketing Team. In our previous episode, we explored the “nervous system” of a drone—the Telemetry plugin—and learned how to receive the aircraft’s current status and GPS location via asynchronous callbacks. Now that we’ve successfully retrieved sensor data, it’s finally time to command physical movement! In autonomous flight robotics research,…
Hello, this is QUAD Drone Laboratory.I’m Geunchan Lee, Senior Researcher at QUAD Drone Lab. In the previous article, we covered the design and component selection process for the power system of the 911 FALCON drone. Based on the power requirements of the propulsion system, we determined the battery capacity, selected a power module and PDB…

Hello! I’m Aiden from the Marketing Team. In our last post (Part 4), we covered setting up CMake in an empty project and connecting a communication channel to perform “System Discovery.” So, what’s next? It is time to understand the drone’s current status: What is the battery level? Where is it located (GPS)? For researchers…
