The AERObot is a special ARM microcontroller-based autopilot for small and medium size UAVs 1 developed at Óbuda Universtiy research purposes.The aim of the was to create generic which capable controlling different design, weight structure airframes without any complex parameter or model recalculation as usual e.g.switching between tailless classic tail aircafts.For this purpose simple, desired heading-based guidance method easy visualize needs only few parameters be set while quality remains same existing ones.The paper presents new example controller types can fit it.Test flights were made demonstrate real time opeartion low compution presented methods.
