Product Description
What is EasyPilot 3.0?
EasyPilot 3.0 is an easy to use miniature autopilot for unmanned vehicles. The hardware consists of a single circuit board with all the necessary sensors integrated, including 3-axis gyros and accelerometers, low-latency GPS, airspeed and altitude sensors, servo and payload ports as well as a integrated data link modem. The on-board software utilize high-performance mathematical algorithms, allowing advanced sensor fusion and control.
Why you should choose EasyPilot 3.0?
User experience has been a major focus when developing the EasyPilot 3.0. Operating your unmanned vehicle should be a pleasure! Another focus has been safety, safety for the operator as well as the surroundings. EasyPilot 3.0 has therefore been equipped with only high quality components and sophisticated fail safe functionality has been implemented. Everything in order to make you feel safe and comfortable when operating your unmanned vehicle.

Example Features
Flight Modes
EasyPilot 3.0 supports multiple aircraft control modes to fulfill all your needs for different tasks. You can fly between waypoints in Mission mode, circulate around a point of interest in Loiter mode or steer by controlling heading, altitude and speed in Flight Director mode. A semi-autonomous mode using a joystick can be used if manual control is desired.
Fully Autonomous Flights
The latest firmware version of EasyPilot 3.0 supports fully autonomous flights, from launch to landing. The operator can plan a mission with automatic transit to mission after launch and then transit to autoland after mission completion. This feature gives the operator possibility to focus on other important tasks such as payload control and monitoring.
Emergency Behavior
Several emergency features are available in the EasyPilot 3.0. Go Home, Circulate and Emergency Landing are a few examples, where Go Home takes your vehicle back to your home waypoint, Circulate make it fly in a circular pattern at the current position and Emergency Landing performs a autonomous landing. The emergency behavior can be configured by the operator in order to fit your environment and mission.
User Settings
A lot of settings are available for the operator in order to create a tailored flight behavior based on your preferences. Control and Navigation parameters, operational limits and emergency behavior are examples of available settings. Uploading new settings during flight makes it possible to trim the control loops and navigation during real flight tests.
Hardware In the Loop Simulator
Our Hardware In the Loop Simulator is based on EasyPilot 3.0. The Hardware In the Loop Simulator is a perfect tool for training new operators. It also allows you to plan and fly missions in a simulated environment before performing the same flight with your aircraft.
Autopilot Developers Kit
The Autopilot Developers Kit allows you to fully customize the functionality of the EasyPilot 3.0. You can for example implement customer specific payload control, expand the communication protocol and develop your own control and navigation algorithms.
Vehicle Integration
The generous number of settings makes integration into your own vehicle an easy task. Uploading new settings during flight makes it possible to trim the control loops and navigation during real flight tests. We currently support convetional fixed wing with ailerons, elevator and rudder as well as delta wing and V-tail.
SkyView GCS Compability
EasyPilot 3.0 is specially designed to work with SkyView GCS ground control station software, which give you ability to utilize the full potential of the EasyPilot 3.0.
