Within the MOREALIS project, this work presents a semi-electronic flight control concept with split flaps and a hybrid nonlinear dynamic inversion control law to enable aided flight and automatic flight for an ultralight (UL) general aviation aircraft. The system is prepared for fault detection, isolation, and recovery and intends to increase the overall flight safety of UL aircraft.
