Abstract

This paper has demonstrated the feasibility of manufacturing a flying wing by performing the following steps: making a sketch of the model, establishing the preliminary design and sizing of the model, computer-aided designing using specific software systems, aerodynamic analysis of flight performance, manufacturing and assembling the components, and finally testing the motor and control elements. The wing model has a mass of 750 grams, a maximum speed of about 50 km/h and a range of 17 minutes. The wing model has been designed to accommodate a small video camera that can transmit images in real time. The wing can perform multiple missions: aerial surveillance of certain areas of interest or search and rescue missions in hard-to- reach areas.
