3D Modeling of a Tethered Autogyro with Articulated Rotors and Attitude Control using Differential Rotor Braking
A tethered autogyro with articulated rotors can operate as an unmanned aerial vehicle capable of energy-efficient, long-duration deployment by utilizing ambient wind energy to sustain flight. This article presents a model-based attitude control technique for such a system using a full-fidelity dynamic model. Using Lagr...
