This report addresses the issue of nonlinear attitude control for quadrocopters.A globally stable attitude controller based on unit quaternions is proposed and its stability and robustness is proven.In addition, a method to prioritize the control of the crucial pitch and roll angles over yaw is introduced.Finally, experiments with the proposed nonlinear controller are conducted which demonstrate its performance.
