To address aero-propulsive coupling in DHEP tandem-wing UAVs, this paper establishes a finite-dimension slipstream model validated by experiments. A control allocation scheme is proposed. Simulations confirm high model accuracy and effective suppression of pitch fluctuations during high-angle takeoff.
