The potential of Distributed Electric Propulsion (DEP) for future aircraft has been evaluated with Scaled Flight Testing (SFT). Scaled flight testing can contribute to a reduction of risk and cost in the development of a radically new aircraft. The flight dynamics and control of ...
In this paper, a new nonlinear control allocation method is presented for a distributed electric propulsion (DEP) aircraft. As the electric propellers can be used actively for control, in addition to the control surfaces, the DEP aircraft is over-actuated. This freedom in control ...
