    The nonsingular finite-time adaptive robust saturated command-filtered control problem for quadcopter unmanned aerial vehicles is investigated in this paper. Firstly, an adaptive robust command-filtered control, based on backstepping command-filtered and nonsingular fast terminal sliding mode control, is developed. Secondly, the parametric and nonparametric uncertainties are estimated by using a small number of adaptive laws. Also, a projector function is used to ensure the estimation of quadcopter parameters within an admissible set. Thirdly, error compensating signals are employed to tackle the undesirable effect of command filters. Finally, saturation compensator signals are developed to deal with the adverse effect of saturation in the system. The proposed control strategy can cope with the “explosion of complexity” and “singularity” problems. In addition, it can alleviate the chattering phenomenon and satisfy practical finite-time stability. The numerical simulation results and comparison display the effectiveness of the proposed technique over the other control methods
