Abstract
This chapter has both maker and scientific impacts. It will show you a topic discarded in practically all the books and available references, and which consists of the generic simulation of drones. In this particular case, we will use the MATLAB/Simulink tools due to their popularity and simplified use among the scientific community, but the knowledge is extendable to any other programming environment, including open source simulators. The approach is based on the use of state-space variables and a graphic representation through processing blocks. As a result, you will be able to design your own vehicles by using software tools and also to extend this type of knowledge to other robots.
