Abstract :
The paper presents the testbed for the UAS instability measurements. The testbed consists of the aerial vehicle of the miniUAV class. The airplane is equipped with the sensor suite built upon several sensing devices: gyroscopes, accelerometers, magnetometers, GPS receiver and pressure sensors. The data from the sensors is combined in the on-board sensor fusion processor and then transmitted to the ground control station. The aerial vehicle that was acting as a carrier platform is a regular UAV being an equipment of one of the European armies.
