This paper presents a model of an agile tail-sitter aircraft, which can operate as a helicopter as well as capable of transition to fixed-wing flight. Aerodynamics of the co-axial counter-rotating propellers with quad rotors are analysed…

This paper investigates the formation of fixed-wing UAVs in 3D, which communicate via a directed acyclic graph. Different from common formation problems, we consider the roto-translation invariant (RTI) formation, where the…

[Accepted to IROS 2025] In this paper, we address the problem of tracking high-speed agile trajectories for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs), where model inaccuracies can lead to large tracking errors. Existing Nonlinear Model Predictive…

We study adaptive fault tolerant tracking control for uncertain linear systems. Based on recent results in funnel control and the time-varying Byrnes-Isidori form, we develop a low-complexity model-free controller which achieves prescribed…

Stable aerial manipulation during dynamic tasks such as object catching, perching, or contact with rigid surfaces necessarily requires compliant behavior, which is often achieved via impedance control. Successful manipulation depends on how…

Automated visual inspection of on-and offshore wind turbines using aerial robots provides several benefits, namely, a safe working environment by circumventing the need for workers to be suspended high above the ground, reduced inspection…

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…
