Different shapes, such as a line, a V-shape, a square, or a rectangular shape, are used to demonstrate formation flying. UAVs that work together and are equipped with the right software and hardware have the potential to improve HADR (Humanitarian Aid and Disaster Relief) capabilities. Using existing open-source hardware and software, design an algorithm to simulate formation flying. The Quadrotor configuration simulation is accomplished using a single loop python algorithm and mission planner. The simulation consists of four copters that are controlled from the Ground Station. The command is given by using a python algorithm controlled in the ground station. Its take-off and flight are started and the mission and landing. One quadrotor is the master and the other three are slaves in a master-slave formation flying. Slaves are quadrotors. It has a rate of rotation, and slaves calculate the target and rate of rotation, which is required for relative attitude control. From this method, it is simple to gather information, transmit messages, and calculate time and information delays. Formation flight control in multi-UAV systems can be achieved using a variety of tactics, each with its own set of benefits and drawbacks. To make each technique’s flaws as small as possible. The UAVs must then calculate their required positions to fly in formation. The formation employs two fundamental approaches: a master-slave approach and waypoint navigation via a ground control station. From the ground station, formation flying employing SITL can be used to simulate the Quadrotor vehicle. To fix the waypoints after receiving the Quadrotor vehicle to fly the Quadrotor in planned waypoints. Set the home position and the place where the quadrotor UAV was armed for quadrotor UAV. The vehicle’s movement is controlled by navigation commands, which include take-off, moving to and around waypoints, altering altitude, and landing. It uses a UDP connection to connect the ground control station to the autopilot.
