CONSIDERATIONS FOR OPTIMIZING THE FLIGHT PERFORMANCE OF miniUAVs

Abstract

Unmanned aerial vehicles benefit from a series of mature technologies that transform them into data acquisition, processing and dissemination tools with high levels of impact on areas of interest and great utility for users. The paper exposes the stages of analysis regarding the upgrade process of UAV (ATM-1) from the variant of equipping a target aircraft to a superior variant that can be used for data collection, from areas of interest, in the form of static or dynamic images. The proposed variant has implications both on the air vector balance and on the performance of use due to the new onboard equipment.
