Abstract :This study presents an investigation and evaluation of the control quality of the automatic control system for UAVs in the vertical plane under windy conditions. For the operational stages of UAVs in general, the landing stage is one of the high-probability stages that pose a threat to flight safety, especially at the time of landing. Therefore, to evaluate the control quality of the system, the authors investigated the parameters during UAV landing. The automatic control system uses a PID controller with optimal parameters selected by the Signal Constraint tool in Matlab Simulink. The predetermined wind model was used to verify at the most extreme times. The programs proposed in the paper are simulated on Matlab Simulink software.
