Remote control unmanned aerial vehicle test system based on Labview

A remote control UAV test system was designed for assessing control level of the flight operators.During the test, the flight operator should control the UAV to take-off, flying along the scheduled flight path, spot hover and fixed-point landing.The system used IG-500N to acquire real-time UAV flight status and sent it to the ground computer by wireless data transmission module.Flight status information was consist of triaxial attitude angle, triaxial accelerometer, triaxial angular,triaxial speed, GPS latitude and longitude, GPS altitude, temperature and barometric pressure.The system software based on labview extracted the data corresponding to every test project.Then it calculated time, position deviation and attitude stability based on these data.So as to obtain control level indicators that would be imported into the test report.Experiment results showed that the system can be used to provide a reference for assessing operator level of the flight and performance improvement of autonomous UAV.
