A. Swarup
TLDR
A quadrotor is nonlinear, coupled and unstable system and two control schemes, namely backstepping and sliding mode, have been applied to obtain desired trajectory tracking by Quadrotor.
Abstract
A quadrotor is nonlinear, coupled and unstable system. Two control schemes, namely backstepping and sliding mode, have been applied to obtain desired trajectory tracking by quadrotor. This paper presents the comparative performance results of quadrotor under two control schemes.

Robust Generalized Dynamic Inversion Quadrotor Control

TL;DR: In this article, a two-loops Robust Generalized Dynamic Inversion (RGDI) quadrotor control system design is presented, where the outer loop provides pitch and roll attitude commands to the inner loop, which in turn generates the tilting angles that are required to control the quadrotors position in the horizontal inertial plane in addition to the required reaction torque and thrust for yaw attitude and altitude tracking, respectively.
