Abstract

Abstract: Quadcopter is an advance highly maneuverable aircraft which has a simple design and structure. It has high load carrying capacity and other characteristics. Quadcopter is one of the UAV (Unmanned aerial vehicle) which is used to lift, carry, observe, rescue and collect data from one place to another in lesser time and without taking much space and cost. It can be used for surveillance purpose and military operations. The static and dynamic characteristics of the structure of quadcopter have been analyzed by determining and analyzing the dynamics of the quadcopter. This paper describes the overall design of quadcopter frame model, then analyzing the frame with commercial Finite element code ANSYS 18.0 (Academic research). Selecting the necessary material and structure that meets the strength and stiffness of requirement of the system
