This paper addresses an attitude tracking control design applied to multirotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) based on an ADRC approach. The proposed technique groups the endogenous and exogenous disturbances into a total disturbance, and then this is estimated online via an extended state observer (ESO). Further, a quaternion-based feedback is developed, which is assisted by a feedforward term obtained via the ESO to relieve the total disturbance actively. The control law is bounded; consequently, it takes into account the maximum capabilities of the actuators to reject the disturbances. The stability is analyzed in the ISS framework, guaranteeing that the closed loop (controller-ESO-UAV) is robustly stable. The simulation results allow validation of the theoretical features.
