Fast optimal trajectory generation for a tiltwing VTOL aircraft with application to urban air mobility

We solve the minimum-thrust optimal trajectory generation problem for the transition of a tiltwing Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) aircraft using convex optimisation. The method is based on a change of differential operator that allows us to express the simplified point-mass dynamics along a pr...
