Within this paper, a controller for the translational motion of a flying wing based on Incremental Nonlinear Dynamic Inversion is presented. Operated within an Airborne Wind Energy system, this approach allows the necessary multi-axial maneuvers such as the yaw-roll transition from propeller-borne flight to wing-borne flight.
