Abstract

The objective of this study is to develop a tri-rotor flying robot, which adopts the Y-shaped three-rotor structure. In order to balance the yaw torque produced by the three rotors, the RC servomotor and linkage is installed on the tail axis in order to improve the angle of the rolling axis of the tail motor. Moreover, through the torque generated by the horizontal component of the lift from the inclined motor on the tail axis, it balances the yaw torque of the three rotors. The dynamic equations of the tri-rotor flying robot are determined in this paper. The relationship between motor thrust, angular acceleration, and voltage input was also studied in this research. In order to study the effect of control parameters on the flight stability completely, this study develops a universal stability experimental platform to help tuning the control parameters safely. Based on this, the tri-rotor flying robot can rapidly change flying gesture and avoid oscillation. Finally, we conducted some indoor and outdoor flight tests. From the experimental results, the tri-rotor flying robot can fly and hover stably in the sky.
