This paper provides a broad perspective and analysis of the work done in control of hybrid
and convertible unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for the main existing designs. These flying …

The tilt rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (TRUAV) exhibits special application value due to its
unique rotor structure. However, varying dynamics and aerodynamic interference caused by …

Mobility of a hexarotor UAV in its standard configuration is limited, since all the propeller
force vectors are parallel and they achieve only 4-DoF actuation, similar, eg, to quadrotors …

The Vertical Take‐off and Landing (VTOL) unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with the tilt‐
rotor mechanism also known as hybrid UAVs have a lot of challenges in designing and …

This paper describes a complete six-degree-of-freedom nonlinear mathematical model of a
tilt rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The model is specifically tailored for the design of a …

This paper addresses the problem of robust flight control of unmanned rotorcrafts, by
proposing and experimentally evaluating a real–time robust model predictive control …

Most types of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV, drone) missions requiring Vertical-Take-Off-
and-Landing (VTOL) capability could benefit if a drone's effective range could be extended …

Abstract Many Unmanned Air Vehicle (UAV) applications require vertical take-off and
landing and very long-range capabilities. Fixed-wing aircraft need long runways to land, and …

This paper presents the development of 6-degrees-of-freedom (6-DOF) flight dynamics
model and nonlinear control design for a novel hybrid biplane-quadrotor unmanned aerial …

This paper presents the control system design process of a novel tilt‐rotor unmanned aerial
vehicle (TRUAV). First, a new configuration scheme with the tilting rotors is designed. Then …
