Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) in the form of multi-rotor system is having a great potential in various applications such as disaster management (as first response system) and surveillance. It is known that conventional helicopter system, capable of hovering, is practical and reliable as many applications have confirmed its capabilities. However it is only achievable once highly optimized control architecture is realized. The objective of the research presented in this paper is, to develop a small multi rotor UAV system that is able to autonomously flying from one way point to another in a stable manner. This small UAV is termed as Mini (or Micro) Aerial Vehicle (MAV). In this project, a four-rotor system was developed, and becoming the platform of various sensors system, flight control system, and electric propulsion system. The MAV was programmed to be able to lift off and fly to waypoints making use of GPS. This paper presents the architecture of the MAV and its autonomous flight.
