The paper presents the design, calibration, and navigation of a bird ambulance drone equipped with an APM (ArduPilot Mega) flight controller. The research focuses on developing an innovative and ethical application of drone technology to rescue and assist birds and animals in distress. The study encompasses a comprehensive exploration of the drone’s structural and avionics design, ensuring efficient and swift response during rescue operations. The research further demonstrates the experimental weight estimation and thrust estimation to choose the electronic components wisely. The research work proceeds to the avionic design with configuration of drone which demonstrates the detailed explanation of motions involved in the drone. Then the calibration process involves precise configuration of the APM flight controller, enabling accurate and autonomous navigation through GPS technology. The proposed bird ambulance drone represents a promising solution for wildlife conservation and rescue operations, demonstrating the ethical use of advanced technology for the benefit of all living beings.
