Aerial manipulators have great potential in accomplishing a variety of aerial tasks. One class of aerial manipulators, multi-UAV parallel robots, consists of multiple UAVs connected to a payload or an end-effector by passive kinematic chains. The primary limitation of such aerial manipulators is the dependence on motion capture (MOCAP) systems that provide precise and high-rate exteroceptive pose ...
