Problem Statement

1.1 The objective of this senior design project was to design and build an aerial drone with a landing gear system that would allow leveling and take off from a sloped terrain. The drone should be able to level on a slope with a maximum incline of 20 degrees and the leveling process should not exceed 30 seconds. In addition, the leveling system must be automatic and deployed using the flight controller.
