Model free control architecture for flight management of a convertible UAV

Description

By placing itself in a variety of sectors, flying drones have seen their missions diversifying and complexifying. They are forced to perform long distance flights, combine hovering and advancing flight, operate in constraining environments, map areas or manipulate loads, all while improving their reliability. So-called " toggle body1 " convertible drones effectively respond to these new challenges due to their design simplicity and their versatility, especially by combining hover and long endurance flight but also by taking off and landing in restricted areas. Our software solution allowing model-free control of a convertible UAV, from hovering to forward flight.
