Quadcopter Aggressive Maneuvers along Singular Configurations: An Energy-Quaternion Based Approach

Automatic aggressive maneuvers with quadcopters are regarded as a highly challenging control problem. The aim is to tackle the singularities that exist in a vertical looping maneuver. Modeling singularities are resolved by writing the equations-of-motion of the quadcopter in quaternion form. Physica...
