‫Welcome back.

2
00:00:01,710 --> 00:00:08,220
‫So I want to talk a little bit more about those conventions, what I want you to understand is that

3
00:00:08,700 --> 00:00:16,310
‫the drones attitude is not different, depending on which convention you choose.

4
00:00:16,740 --> 00:00:19,170
‫The drones attitude is what it is.

5
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:25,220
‫And now you simply have to describe the altitude of the drone.

6
00:00:25,620 --> 00:00:28,530
‫And for that, you have different ways to do it.

7
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:36,960
‫You have 24 different ways to describe the drones attitude if you use rotation matrices to describe

8
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:37,110
‫it.

9
00:00:37,530 --> 00:00:45,000
‫You have 12 ways if you rotate about the fixed inertial frame axis and then you have 12 ways when you

10
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:52,290
‫rotate about the moving body frame axis, but the drones altitude itself stays the same is just you

11
00:00:52,290 --> 00:00:56,900
‫have different conventions to describe the same thing.

12
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:05,750
‫It's like describing some kind of distance either in meters or in feet.

13
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:13,870
‫It's like either you use Cartesian coordinates to describe some kind of position or polar coordinates.

14
00:01:14,490 --> 00:01:22,050
‫So, for instance, if you choose to describe a drone's attitude with an inertial X, Y, Z convention

15
00:01:22,350 --> 00:01:29,190
‫where you first rotate about the inertial X axis, then about the inertial Y axis and then about the

16
00:01:29,190 --> 00:01:35,540
‫initial Z axis, then your Fifita and BPCI Angles will have some kind of values.

17
00:01:35,970 --> 00:01:44,660
‫But if you choose to describe the same thing with an inertial Z, Y, X convention where you first rotate

18
00:01:44,700 --> 00:01:51,420
‫about the inertial axis, then about the initial Y axis and then about the inertial x axis, then those

19
00:01:51,420 --> 00:01:54,280
‫angles will have different values.

20
00:01:54,630 --> 00:02:01,890
‫But again, the drones attitude is still the same is just you are describing this additive in a different

21
00:02:01,890 --> 00:02:02,340
‫way.

22
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,600
‫And that's what conventions are all about.

23
00:02:06,270 --> 00:02:11,750
‫It's about having different ways to represent the same thing.

24
00:02:12,210 --> 00:02:21,900
‫Either you represent the attitude of the drone by rotating about the inertial X, Y, Z axis, where

25
00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:27,240
‫you have 12 different ways to do it, or you represent the same attitude.

26
00:02:27,570 --> 00:02:35,300
‫But by rotating about the moving body frame axis for which you also have 12 different ways to do it.

27
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:36,780
‫So that's that.
