The paper is dedicated to research of control system algorithms for the groups of unmannedaerial vehicles. When UAVs are on mission, it’s suitable to control them using less amount of pilots, andcontrol them as a swarm. Using the ad-hoc communication between the agents, and remote control of onemaster relatively to the group of slave-type vehicles, this type of system is quite usable for the list ofactually necessary tasks. This work describes four novel control system algorithms for a group of UAVsReferences
