I have the following model:

I have no problems with launching the propellers, but the following question arose: What needs to be done to make the aircraft take off? How to connect this with simscape multibody?
Now I have the following model:

" What needs to be done to make the aircraft take off?"
For starters, the upward/vertical thrust should be more than the weight of the aeroplane.
Also, the forward thrust should be able to keep the aeroplane afloat.

Dear Ilya,
Please visit the Design and Tune Controller for VTOL UAV reference application which shows you how to implement a guidance logic for a VTOL UAV to perform vertical takeoff, transition, landing, and perform missions in urban environment.
The example series also shows you how to tune the UAV controller for those flight phases. You can also deploy the controller that you designed into PX4 hardware, as well as visualize your mission in Unreal Engine environment.
Best regards,
Agastya
