Abstract

A compound autogyro unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) augmented with tip-jet technology is proposed. A nonlinear six/seven-degree-of-freedom model is built, in which the rotor model is control-oriented and bulit based on explicit blade element method. The model is trimmed with fly-to-trim method and a novel multi-mode trim strategy. Based on the trim results, the nonlinear model is linearization and then the dynamic modes, stability and control characteristics throughout the speed range are analyzed. The trim and analyzed results reflect some key features of multi-mode flight and provide good references for autopilot design of the compound autogyro UAV.
