Small drones support from Simulink?

I am looking for a small commercial drones which supports MATLAB and Simulink. Matlab released Parrot minidrones support from Simulink but that drones are discontinued. Next option can be DJI Ryze Tello EDU but it only supports MATLAB, I couldn't find reference which talks about a small drone support from Simulink. Does anybody recommend me any small commercial drones supports MATLAB and Simulink where control logic algorithms can be designed. I am going to do experiments inside test beds.

Hello Mirzobek,

You can try out the following drone platforms which are supported in both MATLAB and Simulink:

1. PX4 Autopilot: PX4 is an open-source autopilot platform for drones and other unmanned vehicles. MATLAB and Simulink provide support for PX4 through the Embedded Coder Support Package for PX4 Autopilots, which enables code generation and deployment to the PX4 platform.
2. Parrot Mambo/Mambo Fly: MATLAB and Simulink also provide support for the Parrot Mambo drone through the Simulink Support Package for Parrot Minidrones. This package allows users to access the data from the drone's sensors, and control the movement of the drone using Simulink models.

I am also attaching the links of the documentation for the support packages of above platforms.

PX4 Autopilot : PX4 Autopilots Support from UAV Toolbox - Hardware Support - MATLAB & Simulink (mathworks.com)

Parrot Mambo : Parrot Drone Support from MATLAB - Hardware Support - MATLAB & Simulink (mathworks.com)

Hope this helps!!
