Journal ArticleDOI
Modelling and control of a large quadrotor robot
TL;DR: The X-4 Flyer as mentioned in this paper is a 4.4 kg quadrotor with a 1.5 kg payload, which uses tuned plant dynamics with an onboard attitude controller to stabilise flight.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Grasping from the air: Hovering capture and load stability
TL;DR: This paper analyzes key challenges encountered when lifting a grasped object and transitioning into laden free-flight, and demonstrates that dynamic load disturbances introduced by the load mass will be rejected by a helicopter with PID flight control.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability of small-scale UAV helicopters and quadrotors with added payload mass under PID control
TL;DR: This paper determines stability bounds within which the changing mass-inertia parameters of the system due to the acquired object will not destabilize helicopters and quadrotors under Proportional-Integral-Derivative flight control.
Proceedings Article
Modelling and control of a quad-rotor robot
TL;DR: The X-4 Flyer is developed, a quad-rotor robot using custom-built chassis and avionics with off-the-shelf motors and batteries, to be a highly reliable experimental platform.
Proceedings Article
Design of a four-rotor aerial robot
TL;DR: In this paper, the design and fabrication of a prototype four-rotor vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aerial robot for use as indoor experimental robotics platform is presented.
