This paper presents our comparative study on how the flight performances of an in-flight morphing quad-rotor are affected by the morph induced inertia variation. A custom-built in-flight morphing quad-rotor was employed in numerical and experimental tests for the study and analysis. In these tests, the quad-rotor is controlled to follow a predefined path and/or to hover in an environment with the ...
