Hybrid unmanned aerial vehicles (H-UAVs) are highly versatile platforms with the ability to transition between rotary- and fixed-wing flight. However, their (aero)dynamics tend to be highly nonlinear which increases the risk of introducing safety-critical modeling errors in a controller. Designing a safe, yet not too cautious controller, requires a credible model which provides accurate dynamics u...
