This paper describes the design of the collective pitch control law of an unmanned helicopter in low-level altitude mode. The novelty is using an adaptive inner-loop control with an identifier and a reference model, which automatically provides disturbance compensation in the altitude channel during roll and yaw arbitrary maneuvering. The outer-loop control provides radio altitude hold with desired gain-frequency characteristic of stabilization error.

This paper is devoted to the problem of increasing the diagnosis confidence, diagnosis operativeness, and diagnosis depth in observable dynamical systems (DSs). The proposed solution of the above problem relies on the decomposition of DS diagnostic models, on the application of combined goodness-of-fit tests, and on the processing of observations in “forward” and “backward” time. The results of modelling are given.
