Project Summary

In thiss project we are going to design an electric powered flying wing surveillance drone. Due to its unique design, it will be difficult to detect in radar if sprayed with raddiation-absorbant material. It will provide a live video transmittion on android phone. Two cameras will be implanted on it. One will do the surveillance and one will be the guiding one. 

One of the most inportant feature  is that it can self stabilize itself. A highly stabilized fly-by-wire system. It will use small motor propellers instead of aerodynamic control surfaces to control it's roll and pitch axis.

Project Objectives

Here are our objectives:

• Selecting a flying wing design for drone
• Replacement of all control surfaces with small propellers for providing control forces.
• Designing a Fly-by-wire control system for controlling drone maneuverability.
• Fabrication of a working prototype of the drone.

Project Implementation Method

Project will be implemented in following ways:

• Making a 3D model for working prototype in solidworks.
• Doing its simulation in ANSYS software.
• Creating a template out ot that.
• 3D printing that template.
• Molding of carbon fibre sheet on that template to achieve the desired structure.
• Febrication of the motors, cameras, transmitters and controllers inside the flying wing structure.
• Designing and coding the mircocontroller.
• Final testing the prototype.
• Removing bugs in the system.

Benefits of the Project

Benefits:

• Low cost and easily accessible for surveillance.
• Beneficial for checking the crops and feilds.
• No chance of radar detection due to flyng wing design.
• Portable.
• Light weight.
• No fossils are used.
• Clean green energy.
• Rechargable.
• Reduces the time of surveillance.
• Create the job oppertunities for the maintainance engineers, mechatronics engineers etc.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

Our main goal is to build a complete control system for a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) with a restriction that we must use a tailless design aircraft like B-2 bomber since they are less prone to radar detection and the main reason being they have high lift to drag ratio. These tailless design aircrafts are also known as flying wing meaning that they are tailless fixed wing aircrafts having no definite fuselage theoretically these flying wings have the most efficient aircraft configuration from aerodynamic and structural point of view. Beside these advantages the main disadvantage of flying wing is the lack of stability which we must compensate using various design ideas for wings configuration.
