Drone physics, a primer

According to Adafruit Blog, Ibrahim Ahmed has updated his primer on drone physics, adapted from his research in adaptive control presented at the twenty twenty-three AIAA DASC conference. The piece covers coordinate systems and foundational mechanics using his Python simulation framework, multirotor. It's pitched at engineers familiar with calculus and classical mechanics—a technical foundation for understanding how multirotor drones actually fly.
