Presents a nonlinear dynamic model for a four rotors helicopter in a form suited for control design. We show that the input-output decoupling problem is not solvable for this model by means of a static state feedback control law. Then, a dynamic feedback controller is developed which renders the closed-loop system linear, controllable and noninteractive after a change of coordinates in the state-space. Finally, the stability and the robustness of the proposed control law in the presence of wind, turbulences and parametric uncertainties is analyzed through a simulated case study.
