The purpose of this paper is to develop a real-time simulation environment for the validation of controller for an autonomous small-scale helicopter.

    Design/methodology/approach

    The real-time simulation platform is developed based on the nonlinear model of a series of small-scale helicopters. Dynamics of small-scale helicopter is analyzed through simulation. The controller is designed based on the extracted linear model.

    Findings

    The model-based linear controller can be effectively designed and tested using real-time simulation platform. The hover controller is demonstrated to be robust against wind disturbance.

    Research limitations/implications

    To use the real-time simulation environment to test and validate controllers for small-scale helicopters, basic helicopter parameters need to be measured, calculated or estimated.

    Practical implications

    The real-time simulation environment can be used generically to test and validate controllers for small-scale helicopters.

    Originality/value

    The paper presents the design and development of a low-cost hardware in the loop simulation environment using xPC target critical for validating controllers for small-scale helicopters.
