Abstract

Without horizontal and vertical stabilizers, a combat flying wing with high aspect-ratio has strong nonlinear dynamic feature, and use multiple control surfaces to realize multi-axis controls. Its flight control system must be able to handle nonlinearity and control redundancy problems. The six-degree-of- freedom (6-DOF) nonlinear dynamics model of the flying wing is developed. Utilizing nonlinear dynamic inversion theory and control allocation technique, an advanced flight control system for the tracking of trajectory is designed. Numerical simulation results show that this flight control system could comparatively better solve the nonlinear control problem of such aircraft types.
