This project focuses on the design and implementation of a Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) for various applications like reconnaissance, scientific research, and commercial use. The UAV, as defined, is an uncrewed aerial vehicle capable of various missions including surveillance and supply delivery. Our objectives include integrating knowledge from conceptual and detailed design phases, utilizing Pro/Engineer for design, and Excel for cost analysis, while adhering to specifications such as weight limits, control methods, and mission endurance within budget constraints.

UAVs What is it? • An Unmanned Aerial, or Air, Vehicle (UAV) is according to MSN Encarta an "uncrewed reconnaissance vehicle: an uncrewed aerial vehicle that can fly over combat zones and staging areas, dropping supplies to troops, releasing bombs, carrying out reconnaissance on enemy forces." Uses? • Remote sensing • Commercial aerial surveillance • Oil, gas and mineral exploration and production • Transport • Scientific research • Armed attacks • Search and rescue
Objectives Utilize the knowledge learned in each phase of the course including conceptual design using engineering sketches, detailed design using Pro/ Engineer, and cost analysis and material list preparation using Excel to design a micro air vehicle
Design Details 1. Structure and payload requirements • A quick mount should be provided for a 20-g micro DVR. • The maximum weight of the vehicle including payload should be 450 g. 2. Mode of flight requirements • Ground takeoff and landing is required (no toss). 3. Power and propulsion requirements • The vehicle must be able to fly for at least 5 minutes without replenishing or recharging its energy source. 4. Control requirements • The vehicle must be controlled by a 2.4G Hz radio transmitter in a 50’x30’x20’ indoor space with smooth floor. (The width of an NBA basket ball court is 50’)
Design Details cont. 5. Mission requirements • Endurance - fly as many figure 8 paths around two pylons separated by 30’ in five minutes. 6. Cost requirements • Total as-built replacement cost of the vehicle and the trainer must be less than $250. • The cost must be broken down in a Bill of Materials (BOM), in which the Fair Market Value (FMV) of each component must be listed along with the part number, vendor and quantity. 7. Product deliverables • The MAV. • The preliminary design presentation (PowerPoint slide file) • The final design presentation (PowerPoint slide file) • The final printed design report.
Design Drawings • Slowstick assembly
Design Drawings • Camera mount
