Abstract :
An all rotating platform has been modified with the purpose of having at one´s disposal an operative monocopter. The nature of the modifications are described, as well as the control strategy designed and implemented to control the prototype. This strategy corresponds to a H-inf controller in which a nonlinear function has been included to cancel the propeller quadratic force.
