The flight control with wind disturbance predictive model for the University of Glasgow Singapore (UGS) Lynxnaotion Hunter Y-shape V-Tail 500 are presented. The V-Tail has the capability of high directional manoeuvre by the tilted (angled) hind rotors arms. However, the drawbacks of this design are that it causes instability during strong crosswind and structural instability at the rear. As such, the development of a new flight control system with wind correction is required to assist in making this platform stable. The previous phase of this work was to understand the needs and objectives of this project, source for the right configuration and constructing of the V-Tail for the investigation of its flight behaviour. The subsequent phase was to recreate a flight control firmware using Simulink with analysis and discuss the simulation results. The current phase is to integrate the wind correction model. With the new developed wind disturbance control, the model can be flown on course despite strong wind. This can be used for future research into tiltrotor initiatives or even use it to recreate a robust location correction in auto mode without the use of GPS localization.
