Abstract:The control of a tail-sitter aircraft is a challenging task, especially during transition maneuver where the lift and drag forces are highly nonlinear. In this work, we implement a Neural Network (NN) capable of estimate such nonlinearities. Once they are estimated, one can propose a control scheme where these forces can correctly feed-forwarded. Our implementation of the NN has been programmed in C++ on the PX4 Autopilot an open-source autopilot for drones. To ensure that this implementation does not consider… Show more
