Simple Design of VTOL Hexacopter for Simple Navigation
Keywords:
hexacopter, UAV, kinematics, VTOLAbstract
The aims of this research are to determine how to create a simple hexacopter, the flying robot using six propellers. By using dynamic analysis it will be obtained the lifting force. To generate the lifting of each motor each UAV the doing simple maneuver of robot. Because each motor and propeller have the same type, it is enough to test one motor alone to determine the thrust and torque generated. Experiment of Hexacopter will then be done to fly through the path that has been made. Deviations will be measured to determine the amount of error generated. From the result of design, hexacopter successfully made from aluminum plate material and successfully tested fly.
