Abstract
There are many sensors mounted in a multicopter, such as the three-axis accelerometer, three-axis gyroscope, three-axis magnetometer, ultrasonic range finder, 2D laser range finder, and Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver and camera. These sensors in a multicopter are like sensory organs of a human being.
