Flight dynamic stability performance of the baseline-ix blended-wing-body unmanned aerial system using flight simulator / Shahrean Zainurin

The flight quality or behaviour of a blended-wing-body (BWB) unmanned aerial system (UAS) could be gathered and evaluated through virtual simulation or software-in-theloop (SITL) simulation. This is done through a specific setup between a ground control station (GCS) software, Mission Planner and...
