To achieve the experimental verification of our previous formation control algorithm, a formation flight platform based on quad-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is designed with multi-process communication. A so-called Mission Planner, that is, an open-source UAV ground station program, is redesigned for leader-following formation flying. The experiments without horizontal rotation and with a virtual ground leader are discussed in details.
