7.1 Control Algorithm<br />

First test is the stabilization of the aircraft azimuth and it is shown <strong>in</strong> the fig. 8.<br />

Plot <strong>in</strong> the part A shows the aileron control, while the plot <strong>in</strong> part B represents the<br />

setpo<strong>in</strong>t values of the angles: setpo<strong>in</strong>t yaw ( ), setpo<strong>in</strong>t roll ( ) and current<br />

values of angles: yaw ()<br />

and roll (). Setpo<strong>in</strong>t yaw variable was changed<br />

four times by the operator, while the other variables <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g ailerons control on<br />

the plot <strong>in</strong> part A were calculated by the PI controllers formula (1). The value of<br />

the current roll angle ()<br />

is keep<strong>in</strong>g up with its setpo<strong>in</strong>t value ( ) <strong>in</strong> less than<br />

one second. The value of<br />

the airplane azimuth is changed at a constant speed, so<br />

the settl<strong>in</strong>g time depends on the error value. With an yaw error ( ) equal to 15°<br />

settl<strong>in</strong>g time is about 5 seconds and the control is without overregulation. It is<br />

worth not<strong>in</strong>g that the maximum aileron control <strong>in</strong> this case does not exceed 20%<br />

of the control range.<br />
