Review Review of designs and flight control techniques of hybrid and convertible …
This paper provides a broad perspective and analysis of the work done in control of hybrid and convertible unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for the main existing designs. These flying machines are capable of vertical take off and landing (VTOL) in helicopter mode and able to transition to high-speed forward flight in airplane mode and …
How Are Flight Controls Moved?
In it, we discussed the various flight controls in an aircraft and how their movement affects the flight. We also looked at the hinge moments which oppose the pilot input on a flight control surface. In this piece, we …

How Drone Controllers Work (Explained for Beginners)
Most drones come with apps that allow you to control the camera, gimbal, take-off and landing, and some intelligent flight modes using a smartphone in conjunction with a controller. Some drones, such as the Tello, are designed to be flown strictly with a smartphone without using a separate controller at all.
