 Once the Quadcopter achieves stable and smooth hovering capabilities, a Gimbal camera mount can be put on the Quadcopter which would be used to take Aerial Photography.  Additional sensors like Ultrasonic range finder can be incorporated to avoid collisions. A Barometer can be interfaced to ensure that the Quadcopter doesn’t lose its altitude when it is made to hover at a certain height.

 The electrical circuit is first built for the Quadcopter and checked for proper working of motors and propellers. Without connecting the propellers the motors are mounted on the assembled frame and all the electronic components are wired up as shown in the wiring schematics. The code is then put on the microcontroller and tested to check if the arming and disarming mechanism works. Once all individual checks are successful, the response of the motors for all different axis variation is checked with minimum throttle. Once the values of the motor rpm matches as per the PID loop conventions, Quadcopter tuning begins.
