  • Abstract
    The theory analysis of this review is applied to the task of controlling and maneuvering the quad-rotor. The singular four rotor flying vehicle is designed, optimized and applied to the expanded multi-agent system. This produces an evaluation and discussion of the most common and lesser known control laws used to navigate the vehicle as it performs basic translational and rotational motions. Related works based on the complexity of successful collision avoidance and formation between multi-agent quad-rotors is evaluated. A comparison is made between the advantages and disadvantages of each design to allow an understanding of the current research in the field of the multi-agent four rotor flying vehicle. The achievements and applications of the intelligent multi-agent system are then addressed. Lastly, future prospects and challenges to overcome are suggested.
