Today, we tested new adjustments in the altitude controller of our aircraft. It is astonishing to check that in a 3D trajectory (ellipse, 60m peak, 40m low) our vertical controller kept the error between +-2meters! (plot above).

We have tested the XY controller, and now our horizontal errors are less than 0.5 meters! (plot below).

These results were achieved with today’s 30km/h winds with an aircraft weighing less than one kilo!
