Abstract
Towards realising autonomous UAVs, this paper investigates one of the fundamental autonomous flying research problems, i.e., the ability of a vehicle to control its flying behaviour autonomously, without reliance on external infrastructure like Instrument Landing Systems or GPS. In this paper we experiment with a physical UAV prototype with embedded intelligent control capabilities, utilising a Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) neural network, in order to learn lift-off control sequences using self-training. The initial results are promising and show potential for embedding LSTMs in the control systems of autonomous UAVs.
