This paper focuses on the application of L 1 adaptive control to the speed autopilot loop of small-scale unmanned helicopters. The L 1 adaptive control technique is investigated for its potential to provide reliable speed control, particularly in handling external disturbances and model uncertainties. Although L 1 adaptive control has been widely studied, its application to small-scale unmanned helicopters remains relatively unexplored. Through numerical simulations and a preliminary experimental test campaign conducted on a small rotary-wing platform, this paper contributes to validating L 1 adaptive control as a promising solution for speed regulation in unmanned helicopter platforms.
