Abstract
The objective of this study is to clarify the principle of maneuvers of skydiving. Precise maneuver is required not only for harmonization with other members in group performance but also for keeping aerial stability. First, using a simulation method developed by the authors, the relation between velocities and postures, is derived. Second, velocity control method using feedforward and feedback control is proposed and examined by tracking control of desired velocity.
