Quadrotor has a huge advantage to classical unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) since it performs vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) with high maneuverability, which is why it has been worked on by many researchers in recent years. Thanks to VTOL ability, it can be used in rugged and limited terrain without the need of long runways for take-off and landing. In this study, the structure and dynamics of UAVs will be examined and a software will be developed to control a Quadrotor. With this control station, the UAV will be remote controlled, the autonomous missions will be tracked and the vehicles status when it is airborne or out of sight will be monitored. Thus the UAV technology developed for military intentions will be able to be used in the search and rescue field
