Abstract

In this paper, a general design method for lift-propulsion vertical take-off and landing unmanned aerial vehicle (VTOL UAV) is proposed. The power matching based conceptual parameter estimation and aerodynamic shape design are carried out. The attitude control law is designed. The hovering and level flight test of the prototype are carried out. Confirming the validity of the overall design method and the attitude control law design.
