Modelling and Control of Mini-Flying Machines

• Planar Vertical Take-off and Landing aircraft;

• helicopters;

• quadrotor mini-rotorcraft;

• other fixed-wing aircraft;

• blimps.

For each of these it propounds:

• detailed models derived from Euler-Lagrange methods;

• appropriate nonlinear control strategies and convergence properties;

• real-time experimental comparisons of the...
