Abstract
The paper presents selected original solutions concerning UAV control systems technologies. The paper does not describe general theories and global technical solutions used in UAV’s technologies. It presents some tricks created and developed at Rzeszow University of Technology. Presented solutions have been developed and implemented into real control systems. They main goal is to improve control precision and increase system functionality. Results presented in this paper have been collected during real flight tests of different classes of UAVs.
