General Aircraft Data
USER MANUAL 4
The aircraft is a 3D-printed UAV in a classic configuration with a tail boom and
a pusher propeller. It is designed for optimal performance and compactness.
The geometry has been carefully examined using CFD and real flight tests.
The platform is designed with accessibility and modularity in mind. The nose of
the aircraft is fully detachable, allowing for adaptation to various cameras,
sensors, and other types of payloads. By default, it is configured for a standard
19x19 FPV camera and any VTX also located in the nose. All files are available in
STL format, and some of them are also provided in STEP to facilitate easy
editing and customization for individual needs, such as camera mounts,
antennas, and others. With the recommended motor system and a 21AH 4S6P
Li-Ion battery, low current consumption can be achieved during stable flight,
providing a flight time of over 4 hours. The power reserve is substantial, and
flight is possible at around 30% power, allowing for the use of 3S packs as well.
Depending on the user's requirements, they can customize the payload,
battery, and achieve an aircraft tailored to their needs.
CFD Analysis
USER MANUAL 5
The geometry was designed to provide the best possible aerodynamic characteristics. The Eppler E193
airfoil was selected. With the center of gravity correctly positioned 66mm from the leading edge, the
aircraft maintains a substantial margin of longitudinal stability with zero pitching moment at zero angle of
attack. Between 0 and 2 degrees of AoA, the aircraft achieves maximum efficiency at speeds ranging from
50 to 60 km/h. With the recommended motor and propeller and 4S battery, the aircraft flies steadily in
level flight at approximately 30% power, resulting in an average current draw of 4A and providing over
4 hours of flight time. The power reserve is significant, allowing for the use of a 3S battery with lower
voltage. There is considerable flexibility in the choice of motor and battery, depending on user
preferences. When properly configured, the aircraft does not require a flight controller and can be flown
in both manual and automatic modes.
