Abstract

Multicopters have been attracting increasing attention in recent years, while it is significant to consider the flight safety of multicopters in the presence of propulsor faults or failures. Therefore, this paper presents a methodology to analyze the controllable probability of a multicopter with arbitrary configurations based on controllability theory and an available control authority index. The methodology is then used to analyze the controllable probability of multicopters with different propulsor numbers and configurations to show its effectiveness. Based on the controllable probability results, an optimal configuration method is given.
