This paper investigates salient sections from hypothesis to implementation. Researchers at Drone Hopper company have conducted various calculations to perform a precise novel platform called Duty-Hopper (DH). The benefit of this design is to control the attitude by flap vanes and electrical ducted fans (EDFs) when using gasoline engines; while, the principle propellers only lift the drone. This paper examines the attitude control system of DH, once using only flaps, then by only EDFs, and eventually, by compounding both. During this research, the scientific software used is ANSYS-Fluent and MATLAB-SimScape to analyze the entire body of the DH. Furthermore, a robust fault-tolerant controller is designed to immune the DH against internal and external errors. Our research reveals that using flaps is a feasible way to control attitude when it is augmented by EDFs. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1142\/s2301385022500133","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,16]],"date-time":"2021-09-16T04:22:27Z","timestamp":1631766147000},"page":"241-253","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Mathematical Modeling and Designing a Heavy Hybrid-Electric Quadcopter, Controlled by Flaps"],"prefix":"10.1142","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Mohammad Sadeq Ale","family":"Isaac","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Drone Hopper Company, Spain"},{"name":"Polytechnic University of Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ahmed Refaat","family":"Ragab","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Drone Hopper Company, Spain"},{"name":"University of Carlos III of Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Enrique Caballero","family":"Garc\u00e9s","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"UC3M and Aerodynamics Engineer at Drone Hopper, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marco Andres","family":"Luna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Drone Hopper Company, Spain"},{"name":"Polytechnic University of Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pablo Flores","family":"Pe\u00f1a","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Drone Hopper Company, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pascual Campoy","family":"Cervera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Polytechnic University of Madrid, Spain"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"219","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"S2301385022500133BIB001","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2514\/1.16380"},{"issue":"10","key":"S2301385022500133BIB003","first-page":"1831","volume":"228","author":"Speck M.","year":"2013","journal-title":"J.
