+# Azaion Autopilot
+A preliminary example of autonomous drone flight. This example is based on the MAVSDK framework and PX4 flight controller software. Running the example requires compiling MAVSDK and PX4 on a Linux image system using cmake. Example has been tested in Ubuntu 20.04 environment.
+
+
+TODO!! Add support for Docker builds. PX4 installs many dependencies.
+
+## Install necessary dependencies
+sudo apt update
+
+sudo apt install ccache git build-essential curl cmake
+
+## Speed up the compilations
+echo "export MAKEFLAGS=\"-j$(($(nproc)))\"" >> ~/.bashrc
+
+echo "export PATH=/usr/lib/ccache:\$PATH"  >> ~/.bashrc
+
+## Clone source codes. You must add your SSH key before the cloning!
+git clone --recursive git@github.com:azaion/autopilot.git
+
+git submodule update --init --recursive
+
+## Build and install PX4
