This paper presents a quaternion-based adaptive backstepping control method using recurrent fuzzy wavelet neural network (RFWNN) for regulation and trajectory tracking of quadrotors subject to model uncertainties and disturbances. For the controller synthesis, a more complete model of an uncertain q...
