SCALED RADIO CONTROLLED PLATFORM
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2009, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The paper presents building, preparing and testing of a scaled RC aerial platform, as a basis for future flight measurements. The platform is a 1:6 scaled radio controlled model of AEROTAXI design in development. A number of nine test flights were performed in order to validate the platform as reliable and suitable for dedicate instrumentation. Conclusions regarding the qualitative flight characteristics, shortcomings and future improvements are included.
