A Novel Control Allocation Method for Yaw Control of Tailless Aircraft

A Novel Control Allocation Method for Yaw Control of Tailless Aircraft

Tailless aircraft without vertical stabilisers typically use drag effectors in the form of spoilers or split flaps to generate control moments in yaw. This paper introduces a novel control allocation method by which full three-axis control authority can be achieved by the use of conventional lift ef...
