The design and manufacture of a remotely piloted aircraft
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
The article is a compilation of data regarding the process of designing an UAV wing, generally speaking, and an iteration of the stress calculations made during the research. Therefore, we use the best materials and a design that fits the necessities and requirements of such an airplane. The purpose of the UAV is to have a precise goal, namely to be used by the authorities for the people. Example: flying at low height for the surveillance of a large forest fire or a highway, or even for collecting data regarding the air quality and the percentage of noxious particles in different urban and nonurban areas.
