<![CDATA[The precise control of aircraft pitch angles is critical in aviation for maintaining specific attitudes during flight, including straight and level flight, ascents, and descents. Traditional control strategies face challenges due to the non-linear and uncertain dynamics of flight. To address these issues, this study introduces a novel approach employing the artificial rabbits optimizer (ARO) for tuning a PID controller with a filtering mechanism (PID-F) in aircraft pitch control systems. This combination aims to enhance the stability and performance of the aircraft pitch control system by effectively mitigating the kick effect through the incorporation of a filter coefficient in the derivative gain. The study employs a time-domain-based objective function to guide the optimization process. Simulation results validate the stability and consistency of the proposed ARO/PID-F approach. Comparative analysis with various optimization algorithm-based controllers from the literature demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed technique. Specifically, the ARO/PID-F controller exhibits a rapid response, zero overshoot, minimal settling time, and precise control during critical phases. The obtained results position the proposed methodology as a promising and innovative solution for optimizing aircraft pitch control systems, offering improved performance and reliability.]]>
