Abstract

This paper aims to design a controller for the movement of the yaw channel of a small unmanned helicopter. The developed controller is a combination fuzzy logic controller and PI-based adaptation, which was developed based on the proportional-integral controller in considering the relationship between the error amplitude and tendency. This relation will determine which adaptive control rule is applied. The software-in-the-loop (SIL) is then used to validate the performance of the designed controller in the ideal and turbulence environment. The received results are much better than the fuzzy logic controller.
