Lustosa, L.R. (author), Defay, F. (author), Moschetta, J.M. (author)This article presents the results of a wind tunnel campaign for a tilt-body UAV, the MAVion. The objective of this campaign is to develop a simplified flight model for use in control systems design and implementation. In order to achieve precise flight control during transition, stationary and cruise modes, the aerodynamic coefficients are...conference paper 2014

Thipyopas, C. (author), Sun, A.B. (author), Bernard, E. (author), Moschetta, J.-M. (author)A new Nano Air Vehicle (NAV) configuration based on a coaxial nano rotor has been studied by ISAE. The coaxial rotor provides the thrust necessary for hovering and low speed translation flight. The major design challenge for rotary-wing NAVs is related to the difficulty of miniaturizing complex mechanisms such as a rotor cyclic pitch swashplate...conference paper 2011

Itasse, M. (author), Moschetta, J.M. (author), Ameho, Y. (author), Carr, R. (author)Wind tunnel testing was performed on a VTOL aircraft in order to characterize longitudinal flight behavior during a transition between vertical and horizontal flight modes. Trim values for airspeed, pitch, motor speed and elevator position were determined. Data was collected by independently varying the trim parameters, and stability and control...conference paper 2011
