PASSIVE FAULT TOLERANT CONTROL OF A DUAL-SYSTEM UAV IN TRANSITION FLIGHT
J. Cai¹, M. Lovera¹; ¹Politecnico di Milano, Italy
A novel passive fault tolerant control system for the transition flight of a dual-system UAV is proposed in this paper. The developed control system is able to overcome the partial loss of a single propeller as well as modeling uncertainty during transition flight, which effectively improves the safety and reliability of the flight of the dual system UAV.
