This chapter introduces primary sections of an autopilot, and reviews some fundamental topics such as dynamic modeling, UAV dynamics, forces and moments, transfer function, state space, and linearization. Moreover, it presents autopilot categories and design simulation. In a conventional autopilot, three laws are simultaneously governing the three subsystems: control system through a control law; guidance system via a guidance law; and navigation system through a navigation law. The design of the control law is at the heart of autopilot design process. The chapter illustrates the relation between the control system, the guidance system, and the navigation system. It then presents the dynamic modeling of the UAV, and enables a UAV designer to use the mathematical tools in the design process. The use of flight simulation tools to reduce risk and flight testing for an aerial vehicle system reduces the overall program schedule.
