Abstract

This paper considers control of an unmanned aerial vehicle with two horizontal aerodynamic control surfaces in the modes of angular stabilization and coordinated turn. We analyze the linear yaw angle control algorithms based on roll angle variation in terms of their performance. In addition, we suggest an algorithm that ensures a required performance of yaw angle control. Some simulation results are given.
