Abstract

The invention discloses a flight control navigation system of a miniature flapping-wing flying vehicle. A signal output by a sensor unit is subjected to AD (analog-to-digital) conversion, and then is sent into a flight control navigation computer by a data communication interface; a GPS (global positioning system) receiver sends the signal into the flight control navigation computer to carry out configuration through the data communication interface; all programs and data of the flight control navigation computer run in an SRAM (static random access memory); and the flight control navigation computer outputs a control instruction to a steering engine and an electronic speed regulator through the data communication interface, is connected with a data link through the data communication interface, and carries out data telemeasuring and remote control command communication. By using the flight control navigation system of the miniature flapping-wing flying vehicle, the autonomous flight of the miniature flapping-wing flying vehicle is achieved, and the strict requirements of the miniature flapping-wing flying vehicle on aspects of space, weight, electromagnetic compatibility and the like are met.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of aircraft control, in particular to an aircraft flight control navigation system. Background technique [0002] The flapping-wing miniature aircraft is a new concept aircraft that imitates the flight of birds or insects. It uses one or several pairs of flapping wings to generate lift and thrust at the same time for flight. It has small size, light weight, good concealment, and flexible use. High efficiency and other advantages, if equipped with relevant data transmission and flight control systems, a miniature flapping-wing unmanned aerial vehicle platform can be formed, which has broad military and civilian prospects. At present, both international and domestic researches on miniature flapping-wing drones are being carried out. Among them, the more influential ones are the "Microbat" of Aero Vironment in the United States, and the "Delfly" of Delft University in the Netherlands. In early 2011, Aero Vironment also The l...
