For the past week, our Circular UAV project team 1) finished the proposal for UROP. 2) estimated the budget for our current design. 3) started the CAD model for the wind tunnel test. 4) calculated the power requirement with the basic performance metrics from the previous week. 5) met with Terry for process review and signed up for a peer …

For the past week, our Circular UAV project team 1. updated the weight estimate for the current design. 2. came up with some basic requirements for our Circular UAV including, Rate of Climb : 600 ft/min Range : 3 miles Endurance : 15-20 minutes Stall speed : 16.13 ft/sec (hand launch) 3. calculated the wing loading, wing area, and aspect …

The Circular UAV project aims to design, build, and fly an unmanned aerial vehicle with circular wing configuration. In the beginning of the designing process, we need to roughly calculate the weight of the vehicle, collect information about parts, and decide which to use. So far, we got together and 1) decided to use one of the airfoil types between …
