Compact Unmanned Aerial Vehicle with Carbon Fibre Frame and Propellor for Underground Application : An Approach

Abstract

A drone is a device useful for surveillance, security and improve safety aspects. Drone has many applications contributing in societal developments which is the motivation for the present project work. Drone is being emerged by various military organization, commercial capacity and its applications is increasing day-by-day. Unmanned aerial vehicles are designed as a self-operating device based on receiving feedback from signals and sensors. Brushless DC motor, frames, transmitter, receiver, propellor, flight control board, LiPo battery, electronic speed controllers were used to perform the experimental set-up. An attempt has been made to design light weight drone compared to the conventional drones available. The drone is fabricated in such a manner that initially it performs downward motion into the well followed by the upward motion. All the components of a proposed drone have been fixed and checked for its working. The drone operates in a stable manner with four propellors and contributed its excellence for the underground application.
