USING THE H-AIRFRAME PARADIGM FOR CONSTRUCTING SEPTA-ROTOR UNMANNED HELICOPTERS

Author: USING THE H-AIRFRAME PARADIGM FOR CONSTRUCTING SEPTA-ROTOR UNMANNED HELICOPTERS

Category: Engineering, Science and Mathematics

Abstract:

Using multi-rotor unmanned helicopters for various purposes becomes a practice in the recent years, due to the increased efficiency of electrical motors and batteries and at the same time their lowering cost. Multi-rotors are applicable in a number of situations, from pollution monitoring and disaster management to scientific research. Starting from tri-copters and quad-copters users are more and more demanding multi-rotors with larger number of propellers aiming at lower risk, higher efficiency, larger payloads, etc. Among those helicopters are machines with five, six, seven, eight or even a larger number of propellers.
