A drone that includes an automatic piloting system that receives internal and/or external piloting instructions, as well as data of instantaneous attitude (φ*, θ*), altitude (z*) and speed (V*) delivered by sensors. Set point calculation circuits calculate, as a function of a model of the aerodynamic behaviour of the drone in flight, roll (φ) and/or pitch (θ) set points and/or speed set points (V) and/or altitude set points (z) corresponding to the internal and/or external piloting instructions received. Correction and control circuits control the propulsion system and the drone control surface servomechanisms. A system further allows generating internally piloting instructions for autonomous flight modes such as automatic take-off or automatic landing.
