This paper presents experimental results related to the trajectory tracking performance of a recently developed model reference adaptive control (MRAC) of a quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicle carrying a suspended load under wind turbulance. The suspended load as an unmodeled dynamics and the wind as a constant disturbance significantly degrade the tracking performance of the nominal controller. We compare the performance of the men tioned MRAC with the performances of the nominal controller and the standard MRAC through a series of experiments to elucidate its efficacy in reducing the effects of unmodeled dynamics.
