Abstract
Turbine engine has been used as high reliability and safety engine on airline transportation. Safety of aerial robots is the most significant for social use of aerial robots. We have started the research of aerial cargo robot called the 3-dimentional-transportation robot (3DTR) in 2004. First flight of the 3DTR was successfully achieved on November 22, 2005. The 3DTR is consisting of flexible airfoil, twin micro turbo jet engine and a gravity center control unit. The 3DTR meets all the following requirement for safety; touchable (without any propellers or rotors), low down rate as same as parachute (below 1.0 m/sec), low stole speed less than 25km/h, multi way control system and so on. The most significant specification for safety is to use of silent turbojet engine for the thruster of 3DTR. In this report, results of the turbojet engine development for aerial robots are reported.
