Abstract
Embodiments are directed to a rotor-based remote flying vehicle platform such as a quadrotor, and to methods for controlling intra-flight dynamics of such rotor-based remote flying vehicles. In one case, a rotor-based remote flying vehicle platform is provided that includes a central frame. The central frame has a control center that is configured to control motors mounted to the vehicle platform. The central frame also has a communication port configured to interface with functionality modules. The communication port is communicably connected to the control center. The rotor-based remote flying vehicle platform further includes at least a first arm that is connected to the central frame and extends outward, as well as a first motor mounted to the first arm, where the first motor is in communication with the control center. The method for controlling intra-flight dynamics may be performed on such a rotor-based remote flying vehicle.
