This paper considers the development of fault tolerant controllers (FTC) and their application to aerospace system. In particular, given the extensive and growing literature in this area, this paper focusses on methods where the schemes have been implemented and flight tested. One thread of the fault tolerant control literature has involved sliding mode controllers. This paper considers a specific class of sliding mode FTC which incorporates control allocation to exploit over-actuation (which is typically present in aerospace systems). The paper describes implementations of these ideas on a small quadrotor UAV and also piloted flight tests on a full-scale twin-engined aircraft.
