In this paper a method for fault diagnosis in quadrotor helicopter is presented. The proposed approach is composed of two stages. The first stage is the modelling of the system attitude dynamics taking into account the induced communication constraints. Then a robust fault detection and evaluation scheme is proposed using a post-filter designed under a particular design objective. This approach is compared with previous results based on the standard Kalman filter and gives better results for sensors fault diagnosis.
