So after endless hours in the lab I am happy to report success in all fronts of the autopilot and making the GIT repository publicly available. The following plots show the XY plot of the Airplane as well as the autopilot’s inner loop response to commands from flight tests.

Waypoint tracking is one of the most sought-out features in an autopilot. Essentially it allows the end-user to program (generally via a map or an aerial picture) a path (composed of waypoints) that the UAV is commanded to track. When we started working on SLUGS it was clear that this would be the first high-level feature we would add. And today I am happy to report that it is fully working in software simulation and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL).
