Check out my personal project!
3D printed 2.5m wingspan twin boom UAV.
This project is divided into different stages and phases including:
Aircraft Conceptual, Preliminary, & Detail Design
0:00 UAV Preview
0:54 CADD Modelling
2:45 CFD Simulations
3:26 Flight simulations & Performance analysis
5:16 Tuning & 3D Printing
5:44 Assembly & Avionics Integration
7:34 Mold Design and Printing
7:56 Carbon fiber wet layup
8:57 Maiden flight test
My primary goal is to design a UAV that i can use for fun and recreation because designing UAVs and flying RC planes is my hobby and passion.
For the design requirement, i wanted a UAV that I can easily modify and customize so i designed it in a modular way where i can easily replace a single part and implement design changes. This also makes repairs easy in case of damage.
I also wanted a UAV that I could easily transport and assemble in the field, so i designed the wings to be easily installed and removed.
Hope you like it! Let me know what you think! 😊
Project Start: June 2024
Maiden flight: August 22, 2024
