3.4.1 Positioning and Orientation <strong>System</strong><br />

For indoor testing <strong>of</strong> the automatic flight control system, the safety test rig had<br />

been equipped with several rotary encoders and a linear position transducer to give<br />

us sensory information about the position <strong>of</strong> the helicopter UAV. Furthermore, an<br />

inertial measurement unit (IMU) was also installed on the helicopter to obtain attitude<br />

information <strong>of</strong> the aerial system. <strong>The</strong> motivation to use the linear position transducer and
