BALDEON, J; ESCORZA, J; CHAVEZ, D  and  CAMACHO, O. Control for Hexacopters: A Sliding Mode Control and PID Comparison. Rev. Téc. Ing. Univ. Zulia [online]. 2016, vol.39, n.3, pp.137-144. ISSN 0254-0770.

The objective of this paper is to design and to test the performance of different control strategies for vertical take- off, landing and changes in the three angles with disturbances for a hexacopter. The control strategies to be used are PID and Sliding Mode Control. The Sliding Mode Control can be implemented using a PD controller as the sliding surface. The controllers are tested through simulations.

Keywords : Robust control; sliding mode control; hexacopter; performance; PID.
