Context:

The aerospace industry had quite a rise and also the development and application to the autonomous systems, favoring important developments in its implementation, and control systems.

Method:

This work presents the development and implementation of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, quad-rotor type. The process begins with the mathematical analysis of the aerial vehicle systems, and finding the dynamic model. The modeling of the prototype is based on the Euler LaGrange equations; the design of the structure and the development of control systems are based on sliding modes. Furthermore, the applied control law is also based on sliding modes in the implemented system, which uses only Pitch, Roll and Elevation information

Results:

A prototype of unmanned aerial vehicle was implemented as a quadricopter, and the control system was implemented, where an adequate monitoring of the reference was obtained.

Conclusions:

The proper selection of the elements for the implementation prototype allows to implement different control strategies, for this case demonstrating the adequate work of the sliding modes for the stabilization in quadricopter two axes.
