Hardware-In-The-Loop simulation is nowadays widely used to validate the control and estimation algorithms of autonomous flying vehicles before attempting the first flight. It avoids the time and cost of a real flight while ensuring testing the algorithms in a safe and controlled environment. However, this technology can be cost-prohibitive when implemented with a computer capable of real-time response. An alternative approach, proposed here, is to implement the simulator in the hardware autopilot. This ensures the simulator is running on a real-time operating system on the autopilot board itself. The obtained results demonstrate that this simulator shows performances similar to conventional hardware-in-the-loop approaches while ensuring a very accurate sampling time.
