What is it about?

Tethered multi-rotor autogyros can be potentially used as energy-efficient UAVs for surveillance systems in lower altitudes. We develop a control-oriented modeling procedure of such a system and introduce a differential rotor braking technique, applied in a regenerative manner, to control the autogyro’s altitude.
