Abstract

AbstractWith current research in quadrotor Loss-Of-Control (LOC) being focussed on specific failure cases such as Single Rotor Failure (SRF), the growth that is expected in the drone industry will not be able to be sustained, in regards to the safety of individuals in urban areas.Without an assurance of reliability regarding the safety of drones this is just not feasible. This work seeks to show the importance of modelling hazards such as the Vortex Ring State (VRS) to broaden the approach on solving LOC of quadrotors. Through the adaptation of the LOC definition of aircraft to quadrotors and a comparative analysis of quadrotor flights, of both the nominal and SRF configuration, a Qualitative LOC Definition (QLD) for quadrotors is created, which can be used for the identification of quadrotor LOC events.
