Abstract
In this paper, We propose a hybrid multicopter that combines an gasoline propulsion system and an electric propulsion system to improve the endurance of the multicopter. The hybrid is equipped with a coaxial inverting thruster using a gasoline engine at the center and an electric propulsion system for attitude control at the side. The control system using a classical control algorithm based on the dynamic model. Finally, flight performance and high-endurance flight of the hybrid multicopter were verified.
