The four-rotor aircraft changes the rotating speed of the rotor by adjusting the rotating speeds of the four motors, so that the change of the lift force is realized, and the attitude and the position of the aircraft are controlled. When the front motor and the rear motor rotate anticlockwise, the left motor and the right motor rotate clockwise, so that the gyroscopic effect and the aerodynamic torque effect are counteracted when the aircraft flies in a balanced manner.

However, in this operation process, the two motors in front and back need to be subjected to complicated rotation speed adjustment, which undoubtedly increases the manufacturing cost of the unmanned aerial vehicle control system.

The first embodiment of the invention provides a tilting flight method of a four-axis unmanned aerial vehicle with a tilting rotor wing, which comprises the following steps:
(1) vertical movement;
when the unmanned aerial vehicle moves vertically, the first steering engine 5, the second steering engine 6, the third steering engine 7 and the fourth steering engine 8 under the first motor 1, the second motor 2, the third motor 3 and the fourth motor 4 keep in the normal position, namely, the four motors and the four propellers are all in the horizontal position, as shown in fig. 2. At this time, the aircraft drives four propellers to rotate to generate lift force by means of rotation of four motors as in the conventional four-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle shown in fig. 1. Meanwhile, the output power of the four motors is increased, the rotating speed of the propellers is increased, so that the total lift force is increased, and when the total lift force is enough to overcome the weight of the whole unmanned aerial vehicle, the four-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle can lift off the ground and rise vertically; on the contrary, reduce the output of four motors simultaneously, the screw rotational speed reduces and makes total lift reduce, and when total lift was not enough to overcome whole unmanned aerial vehicle's weight this moment, four rotor unmanned aerial vehicle then descend perpendicularly, fall to the ground until the balance, realized along the vertical motion of vertical direction. When the external disturbance amount is zero, when the lift force generated by the propeller is equal to the self weight of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the unmanned aerial vehicle keeps a hovering state.
(2) Forward movement;
when the unmanned aerial vehicle moves forward at a certain height, the rotating speeds of the first motor 1, the second motor 2, the third motor 3 and the fourth motor 4 are kept unchanged, and meanwhile, the first steering engine 5 and the third steering engine 7 under the first motor 1 and the third motor 3 are kept in a positive position continuously. Then control second steering wheel 6 under second motor 2 and fourth steering wheel 8 under fourth motor 4, make it drive second motor 2, fourth motor 4 and corresponding second screw, fourth screw and carry out certain angle alpha's rotation forward simultaneously to the lift that makes second screw, fourth screw produce produces the branch pulling force in horizontal positive direction, consequently can realize unmanned aerial vehicle's the motion that advances.
The drone under forward command is shown in fig. 3. An operator can realize the advancing in the horizontal direction and the advancing in the pitch angle direction by controlling the rotating speeds of the four motors, and can control the advancing speed by controlling the rotating angles alpha of the second steering engine 6 and the fourth steering engine 8. If the forward movement is stopped, the steering engine 6 under the second motor 2 and the fourth steering engine 8 under the fourth motor 4 are controlled to recover the normal position;
(3) backward movement;
when the unmanned aerial vehicle retreats at a certain height, the rotating speeds of the first motor 1, the second motor 2, the third motor 3 and the fourth motor 4 are kept unchanged, and the first steering engine 5 and the third steering engine 7 under the first motor 1 and the third motor 3 are kept in a normal position. Then control second steering wheel 6 under second motor 2 and fourth steering wheel 8 under the fourth motor 4, make it drive second motor 2, fourth motor 4 and corresponding second screw, the fourth screw carries out certain angle beta's rotation backward simultaneously, because second screw, the rotation of certain angle beta takes place for the fourth screw to the lift that makes the rotor produce produces the branch pulling force of horizontal negative direction, consequently can realize unmanned aerial vehicle's the motion of retreating.
The drone under the back command is shown in fig. 4. An operator can realize the retreating of the rear support in the horizontal direction and the pitch angle direction by controlling the rotating speeds of the four motors, and can also control the retreating speed by controlling the rotating angles beta of the second steering engine 6 and the fourth steering engine 8. If the backward movement is stopped, the steering engine 6 under the second motor 2 and the fourth steering engine 8 under the fourth motor 4 are controlled to recover the normal position;
(4) leftward translational motion;
when the unmanned aerial vehicle moves horizontally leftwards with the direction kept unchanged at a certain height, the rotating speeds of the first motor 1, the second motor 2, the third motor 3 and the fourth motor 4 are kept unchanged, and meanwhile, the second steering engine 6 under the second motor 2 and the fourth steering engine 8 under the fourth motor 4 are kept in a right position; a first steering engine 5 under a first motor 1 and a third steering engine 7 under a third motor 3 are controlled to drive the first motor 1, the third motor 3 and corresponding first propeller and third propeller to rotate leftwards at a certain angle gamma; because the first propeller and the third propeller rotate at a certain angle gamma, the lift force generated by the first propeller and the third propeller generates a horizontal left-direction partial pull force, and therefore the horizontal left movement of the unmanned aerial vehicle can be realized.
The drone under the horizontal left movement command is shown in fig. 5. An operator can realize leftward movement in the horizontal direction and leftward movement in the pitch angle direction by controlling the rotating speeds of the four motors, and can control the leftward horizontal movement speed by controlling the rotating angles gamma of the first steering engine 5 and the third steering engine 7. If the leftward translational motion is stopped, controlling the first steering engine 5 under the first motor 1 and the third steering engine 7 under the third motor 3 to restore to the normal position;
(5) a translational movement to the right;
when the unmanned aerial vehicle does right translation movement at a certain height with the direction unchanged, the rotating speeds of the first motor 1, the second motor 2, the third motor 3 and the fourth motor 4 are kept unchanged, and the second steering engine 6 under the second motor 2 and the fourth steering engine 8 under the fourth motor 4 are kept in the right position; a first steering engine 5 under a first motor 1 and a third steering engine 7 under a third motor 3 are controlled to drive the first motor 1, the third motor 3 and corresponding first propeller and third propeller to rotate rightwards at a certain angle theta; because first screw, the rotation of certain angle xi takes place for the third screw to make the lift that first screw, third screw produced produce the horizontal branch pulling force of direction right, consequently can realize unmanned aerial vehicle's horizontal motion right.
The drone under the horizontal right movement command is shown in fig. 6. An operator can realize the rightward movement in the horizontal direction and the rightward movement in the pitch angle direction by controlling the rotating speeds of the four motors, and can control the speed of the rightward horizontal movement by controlling the rotating angles xi of the first steering engine 5 and the third steering engine 7. If the right translational motion is stopped, the first steering engine 5 under the first motor 1 and the third steering engine 7 under the third motor 3 are controlled to restore to the normal position.
(6) Estimating the magnitude of the horizontal component tension and the velocity;
the magnitude of the horizontal split tension can be obtained by using a formula F '═ Fsin theta through the lift force F generated by a single rotor wing and the rotation angle theta of a steering engine, and the obtained horizontal split tension F' is combined with the formula F ═ ma and v ═ v0+ at may approximate the magnitude of the horizontal velocity.
The embodiments described in this specification are merely illustrative of implementations of the inventive concept and the scope of the present invention should not be considered limited to the specific forms set forth in the embodiments but rather by the equivalents thereof as may occur to those skilled in the art upon consideration of the present inventive concept.
