ARCAV

ARCAV ARCAV - Arduino Controlled Aerial Vehicle

Designed as a highly maneuverable and unstable flying wing and will be manufactured by students at LTU.

ARCAV-ARDUINO CONTROLLED AERIAL VEHICLE

WHAT
Design and manufacture a highly maneuverable and unstable flying wing, which will be controllable only with help of sensors and control theory combined with elevons. WHY
Use our current knowledge and gain practical experience in the field of aerospace engineering. Since a flying wing is the most efficient and stealthy design of an airplane, it can be u

sed for defense, surveillance or transport purposes in high risk areas. GOALS
Develop stable and reliable control system for simple aircraft design. HOW
To make it as light and strong as possible, it will be partly made of composites such as carbon fibre. The control system will be based on Arduino microprocessors and different sensors like accelerometer and gyroscope. Propulsion will consist of one 90mm electric ducted fan.

We have some sad news! We have unfortunately hit a roadblock when it comes to flight tests. Arcav is unable to lift when simply thrown (which was expected), and our primary solution of catapulting, or towing it by snow-mobile will not be possible to implement. And sadly our pilot will be moving for his internship (though the internship is awesome!), so there goes our flight-controller and receiver :(

We will do our best to think of other solutions in the little time we have left! If anyone has any brilliant ideas, or is willing to help that would great! //Team-ARCAV

Thanks for the support and comments!
