Background Information and User Guide for Mil-F-8785B (ASG), 'Military Specification-Flying Qualities of Piloted Airplanes'
TLDR
The primary purpose is to explain the concept and philosophy underlying MIL-F-8785B and to present some of the data and arguments upon which the requirements were based, and to define their significance and relationship to each other.Abstract:
: The document is published in support of Military Specification MIL-F-8785B, 'Flying Qualities of Piloted Airplanes.' It was compiled after an extensive literature review and many meetings and discussions with personnel from essentially all concerned civilian and governmental organizations. The primary purpose is to explain the concept and philosophy underlying MIL-F-8785B and to present some of the data and arguments upon which the requirements were based. A secondary purpose is to present what are believed to be the important governing variables in the field of flying qualities and to define their significance and relationship to each other. The significance of such mission- oriented factors as airplane class, flight phase, flight condition, loading and configuration is discussed, as is the treatment of failure states. The document should also, to a degree, serve as a summary of the state of the flying qualities art as determined from operational experience, flight test, experiment, analysis and theory.read more

Wind Disturbance Estimation and Rejection for Quadrotor Position Control
Steven L. Waslander,Carlos Wang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an estimation algorithm is developed for the current wind velocity experienced by the vehicle, which is used to improve positioning accuracy by both eliminating the effect of wind on the feedback position control law and adding a wind compensator to mitigate the expected wind disturbance.

Handling qualities and pilot evaluation
TL;DR: As the industry has matured in the 82 years since the first powered flight, the performance, size, and range of application of the airplane have grown by leaps and bounds; only the human pilot has remained relatively constant in the system.

Type-2 fuzzy logic aggregation of multiple fuzzy controllers for airplane flight control
Leticia Cervantes,Oscar Castillo +1 more
TL;DR: This paper presents a proposed new approach for complex control combining several simpler individual fuzzy controllers, which has a hierarchical architecture with 2 levels (individual fuzzy systems and a superior control to adjust the global result).
Quadrotor control: modeling, nonlinearcontrol design, and simulation
TL;DR: A linearized version of the model is obtained, and a linear controller, the Linear Quadratic Regulator, is derived, from which two feedback linearization control schemes are designed.
A mathematical model of a single main rotor helicopter for piloted simulation
TL;DR: In this article, a nonlinear, total force and moment model of a single main rotor helicopter is presented, which is suitable for the simulation of the flying qualities of a helicopter.
