The invention adopts a structure combining the fixed wing, the tiltable rotor wing and the non-tiltable rotor wing, and the vertical lifting can be realized under the condition of no runway; when the aircraft is vertically lifted, the two pairs of rotors run simultaneously, and when the aircraft is cruising, only one pair of rotors located at the root of the empennage runs. By combining the rotor wing and the fixed wing, the endurance time of the aircraft is increased, and the engineering application prospect of the aircraft is widened. Meanwhile, the invention provides an improved flight control law combining the optimal control of the robust servo linear secondary regulator and the extended state observer, and the control performance and the engineering reliability are improved.
In engineering practice, the PID control is still widely used, however, the performance of the PID method control is not ideal, and the problems of actuator saturation and uncertain interference which often occur in actual flight tests cannot be solved. How to design a better linear controller to solve these practical problems, and improving the control performance is the focus of the present invention. The invention provides an improved flight control law based on combination of RSLQR and ESO to control the flight of a novel unmanned aerial vehicle. Similar to PID control, the controller designed by the invention is a linear control method, and has the characteristics of low cost and easy realization. The problems of actuator saturation and uncertain disturbance are solved, and the control performance in actual flight is improved. Therefore, the proposed flight control laws have broad prospects in the engineering application of tiltrotor aircraft.

as can be seen, the RSLQR control improves system performance and immunity to interference because it adds an integrating element to the state feedback control loop. Thus, a flight control law based on RSLQR control may improve the dynamic and steady-state performance of the control system. First, we can extract an angular velocity model and a vertical velocity model. The RSLQR controller is then designed for angular velocity and velocity rings (also referred to as inner rings). In addition, in order to meet the requirement of higher control precision, a mature and reliable PI control method is adopted for attitude and height loop control. Taking the roll channel as an example, the control structure is shown in FIG. 4, in which the PI gain
