MARS-Dragonfly creates a force-torque virtual quadrotor model and two-stage predictive allocator that lets reconfigurable drone modules fly stably and agilely, validated in real-world experiments with 0.0896 m average position error.
GaussFly decouples representation learning from policy optimization via 3D Gaussian Splatting reconstruction and contrastive features to achieve superior sample efficiency and zero-shot sim-to-real transfer for AAV visuomotor policies.
A universal LLM-to-drone interface is implemented via the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and Mavlink, demonstrated with real UAV flight control and simulated flights using live map data.
