1. 1. Small scale VTOL aircraft using only one lift-producing motor : A study of lift capacity for a Vertical Take-Off and Landing capable aircraft

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : Daniel Milenkovic; [2023]
   Keywords : Aircraft; VTOL; EDF; Mechatronics; Ardupilot; Luftfarkost; VTOL; EDF; Mekatronik; Ardupilot;

   Abstract : The usage of unmanned aerial vehicles in applications such as terrain mapping and surveillance is proliferating in the modern world. This project aims to investigate the feasibility, in terms of payload capacity and stability, of small scale winged aircraft that have the ability to lift and land vertically, while also being able to transition to normal forward flight using wings for primary lift.

5. 4. Conceptual Design of a Small­ Size Unmanned Air Vehicle : Part A: Aerodynamic Performance and Structural Design

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Adrian Pellnäs; Johanna Sandeberg; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In this report, the conceptual design of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and aerodynamic analysis is treated. The project was split into two groups, one group would do the aerodynamic analysis, and the other group would do the performance analysis. READ MORE

6. 5. Conceptual Design of a Small Size Unmanned Air Vehicle : Part B: Flight Performance and Flight Mechanics

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Arastoo Bayati; Peter Reinders; [2021]
   Keywords : UAV; VTOL; Flight mechanics;

   Abstract : This report summarizes the task of conceptually designing an UAV suited for agricultural observation of Swedish farmland. The design of the UAV was divided into two parts. This report focuses on the flight mechanics, performance analysis, and cost analysis of the UAV, whereas the other part centers around the aerodynamic performance. READ MORE
