Title: Quad-Tiltrotor – modelling and control.
Authors: Ciopcia, Marcin; Szczepański, Cezary
Abstract: Aircrafts with VTOL capabilities announced a new era in marine aviation. Their aerodrome requirements, which are as low as for helicopters, make them excellent candidates for many missions required by the navy, such as transport or SAR. To successfully exploit their potential many engineering challenges must be overcome. One of the areas with major problems to be solved is connected to the development of a robust control system. The presented article deals with this topic. It describes the methods and concepts, which can be used to model and control these kinds of aircraft.
