[b]An alternative flight control system for an unmanned aircraft whose flight control system fails during a longitudinal flight with constant forward velocity[/b]
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2010, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
In this paper we build up a flight control system for an unmanned aircraft whose flight control system fails during a longitudinal flight with constant forward velocity. This task is accomplished using only the system of differential equations, which governs the movement of the aircraft around its center of mass. Numerical simulation is given.
