Abstract:

Considering the relevant effects of the flight attitude to the flight safety, the post stall maneuvering at high angle of attack region, airdropping heavy cargoes at super low-altitude, flight vehicles suffering catastrophe faults and UAV control methods are briefly reviewed in the paper, according to the thirty years flight test experiences. The approach of establishing flight model by handling stability flight test is presented as well as the useful flight model simplification assumptions for controller design. To enhance the robustness of flight controller against uncertainties, eight topics for robust control are suggested. The control problem for transport plane airdropping heavy cargoes at extremely low altitude is described, and the catastrophic models and tolerant control methods are presented with flight vehicles faults. Meanwhile, the importance of flight state measurements to flight control is issued, especially to UAV flight safety. Due to the inaccuracy measurement, certain flight control problem is addressed. Finally, studies of fixed wing or single rotor tactical unmanned aerial vehicles and other high level research vehicles are suggested for some university and institute to replace the study of four rotor steering aircraft with better stability.

Key words: flight control systems, control for high angle of attack maneuvering, airdropping heavy cargoes at extremely low-altitude, fault diagnosis for flight vehicles, UAV control, system simulations
