Abstract :
In this paper, a modified backstepping approach will be developed and applied to control unmanned areial vehicles (UAVs), Quadrotor. In this modified backstepping approach, the number of control parameters is reduced by half compared with the classical back stepping approach used in the literature. Simulation is used to test the stability of the overall nonlinear Quadrotor system and compared with the classical one.
