Abstract Unmanned Aerial Systems (UASs) have a variety of applications in our daily life that
have attracted the attention of many researchers around the world. There are a variety of …

Tilt-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles have attracted increasing attention due to their ability to
perform vertical take-off and landing and their high-speed cruising abilities, thereby …

This work addresses the rapidly-prototyped design of a small Tricopter/Fixed-Wing Vertical
Take-Off and Landing UAS with solar-recharge-capability, capable of repeatedly landing …

We address the theoretical and practical problems related to the trajectory generation and
tracking control of tail-sitter UAVs. Theoretically, we focus on the differential flatness property …

The tilt tri-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has three flight modes: the hover mode, the
transition mode, and the fixed-wing mode. Controller design in the hover mode is the …

The airspeed is an important feedback signal for flight control, and its measurement
accuracy is related to the safety of aircraft, especially for hybrid vertical takeoff and landing …

The conceptual design and optimization of a tilt-rotor Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) for a well-
defined mission are performed. The objective of this design cycle is to decrease the design …
