Abstract

UAVs have advantages for tasks like aerial surveillance, agriculture, and transportation because of their low operating costs and the ability to automate the work. This paper introduces a conceptual design of a parcel transport UAV called Baseline-X BWB that carries two kilogrammes of payload for inter-city transport. The scope of discussion is limited to aerodynamic estimation, flight performance, and monetary cost. This UAV prototype has a longer battery charge range, a larger and heavier payload capacity, and a lower operating cost-per-mile and fleet cost per route than conventional designs of the same size, making it feasible and profitable for operators.
