Aggressive flight of fixed-wing and quadrotor aircraft in dense indoor environments
Published 2017“…We conclude with experiments demonstrating the execution of quadrotor and fixed-wing trajectories in cluttered environments. We show results of aggressive flight at speeds of up to 8 m/s for the quadrotor and 11 m/s for the fixed-wing aircraft.…”

Autonomous Flight Arcade: Reinforcement Learning for End-to-End Control of Fixed-Wing Aircraft
Published 2022“…In this paper, we present the Autonomous Flight Arcade (AFA), a suite of robust environments for end-to-end control of fixed-wing aircraft and quadcopter drones. These environments are playable by both humans and artificial agents, making them useful for varied tasks including reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and human experiments. …”
