Abstract

Abstract : With the advent of disruptive technologies, unmanned aerial vehicles have seen substantial growth over the past few years. The market for flying robots is increasing drastically, and they are getting used in various sectors. This paper is aimed at discussing the novel design of a hybrid fixed-wing type flying robot in which both fixed-wing and rotary-wing concepts are combined so that stable flight with vertical takeoff can be possible. Our design proposes a compact structure that can be efficiently used in indoor applications. We have also discussed its structural analysis, the model's stability, the CFD analysis, and the vibrational analysis of the designed structure. The objective is to design an effective compact flying robot system that will be used for medical applications and need to carry a payload of a minimum of 2 kg with good aerodynamic performance. The aerodynamic model required for a hybrid fixed-wing type flying robot has been developed, and the static stability of the model has been evaluated in the paper.
