| Summary: | In line with the advancement of micro processor technology, availability small scale
aircraft engine model, light weight material and also better understanding in the
aircraft design process had brought a current attention to develop autonomous flying
vehicles. This kind of vehicle has offered various applications, such as military and
civilian purposes. However to develop such kind autonomous flying vehicles one
have to develop a control law which govern how the flying vehicle to fly. To do so
one have to prepare firstly the required aerodynamics data. The present work
focused on the type of flying vehicle powered by electric type of engine. This type
of engine is normally available in the market is at the size of engine less than 5 hp.
Due to the engine limitation, the size of flying vehicle. has been decided to the
aircraft configuration with all required devices for autonomous they vehicle is no
more than 6 Kg. through series of aerodynamics assessment aircraft components
(fuselage, wing, airfoil on the control surface and it's high lift devices). the present
special write produce an initial aircraft configuration with aerodynamic data which
can be future studied for development that aircraft as an autonomous flying vehicle. |
