    The document describes the design, fabrication, and flight testing of a small surveillance UAV. The UAV was designed to be low weight, low cost, and small in size, with the ability to takeoff and land using radio control and conduct video reconnaissance beyond radio telemetry. Key components included a BLDC motor, electronic speed controller, flight controller, FPV camera, and transmitter/receiver. The fuselage was made of corrugated paper and foam, with wooden sticks for structure. Flight testing demonstrated that the UAV could successfully perform aerial surveillance missions as designed.

    DESIGN, FABRICATION &

    FLIGHT TESTING OF A
    SURVEILLANCE UAV
    ABSTRACT
    • Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV) is becoming
    increasingly popular because it can perform
    variety of functions. These functions include
    surveillance, reconnaissance, monitoring,
    data collection, rescue operation and many
    more. The purpose of this work is to design,
    fabricate and fly a low weight, low cost,
    small size UAV for a surveillance mission
    which can takeoff & land using radio control
    & go beyond radio telemetry and can do
    video reconnaissance.
    DESIGN & FABRICATION
    • The design of the UAV is based on a trainer aircraft about 1:14 scale, length-
    60cm, wingspan- 80cm, wing area- 10cmsq. , CG- 20cm from the nose,
    propeller of 10inch.
    • Electrical & Electronics components used- BLDC motor 1800kv, electronic
    speed controller(esc)30amp, 3-9g servo motors, 2200mah battery, fpv runcam
    camera, ArduPilot flight controller, FlySky CT6B transmitter and receiver
    battery charger.
    • Fuselage is made up of corrugated paper sheets, main wing is made up of foam
    and a wooden stick is used to strengthen it, horizontal and vertical stabilizers are
    made up of corrugated paper sheets, ailerons are made up of plastic corrugated
    sheets.
    • Motor is placed Infront of the nose, one servo is placed on the wing to control
    ailerons, two more servo motors placed in the fuselage to control the vertical
    and horizontal stabilizer, esc is used to control the speed of motor, since battery
    is heaviest of all that’s why placed near the CG of the plane, Flight controller is
    used to autonomous flight beyond radio telemetry.
    CONCLUSION

    • An UAV for aerial missions was successfully designed. This includes weight
    estimation, performance sizing, aerodynamics and geometry calculations.
    The design procedure is iterative, where design parameters are changed until
    a satisfactory performance is achieved. The aircraft was manufactured using
    a combination of foam, paper corrugated sheets and wooden stick. The
    aircraft was successfully flown with a camera on board.
