This paper proposes autonomous flight control system of RC helicopter with wind disturbance. Autonomous RC helicopter is widely adopted in many fields such as surveillance, intelligence and rescue operations. Especially, it is expected that the super small-size RC helicopter is adopted in various environment. However, the low thrust and the light weight of the super small-size RC helicopter make it difficult to control the RC helicopter autonomously with wind disturbance. The relation between maximum takeoff weight of each helicopter and their corresponding difficulty of control with disturbance in previous works is given in this paper. To solve this problem, we present control law and conduct experiments for hovering flight with wind disturbance.
