Abstract
A method for controlling an aircraft includes determining a target angular velocity of the aircraft based at least in part on a target attitude of the aircraft, determining a target angular acceleration of the aircraft based at least in part on the target angular velocity, and generating a command signal for at least one propulsion unit of the aircraft based at least in part on the target angular acceleration.
