This thesis presents a method for the dynamic system identification and simulation model development of a small rotary wing UAV. Using aerodynamic parameterization and linear state-space modeling techniques, the Bergen Industrial UAV was modeled for computer simulation to analyze its inherent stability and control characteristics. The NPS designed JANRAD software was utilized to determine the stability and control derivatives used in the simulation model. The identification of the UAV dynamic model will aid in the development of closed-loop controllers capable of autonomous UAV control. The fidelity of the simulation model was verified by comparing the simulation responses with data collected from on-board sensors during test flight.
