Overview
Atmaca is my LLM-powered autonomous-flight project where you control a UAV with plain English/Turkish commands. Everyday instructions like "take off and go north" or "climb 10 meters" are interpreted by a language model (Gemma 3) acting as the drone's brain and turned into flight.
How It Works
The system splits into a "brain" and a "body". The brain is a Gemma 3 model running on Ollama; it converts the user's text command into a structured JSON decision (e.g. "takeoff 10 m"). The body runs on Python + DroneKit; it receives the JSON over HTTP, translates it into MAVLink commands for the UAV (SITL or real) and feeds telemetry back.
Outputs & Status
The result is a working demo and an autonomous-flight test video (v3.5). I published it open-source (MIT) on GitHub — a pioneering R&D effort showing end-to-end natural-language UAV control.
