In this thesis we are interested in applying distributed estimation, control and optimization techniques to enable a group of quadcopters to fly through openings. The quadcopters are assumed to be equipped with a simulated bearing and distance sensor for localization. Some quadcopters are designated as leaders who carry global position sensors. We assume quadcopters can communicate information with each other.
