- 1. 1 Drone and its applications GCIT 1015 LAW Yui Man 17219353 SETO Po Wing 14209276 WONG Ka Wing 17218977 27 Oct 2017
- 3. Drone – Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) – an aircraft operates without a human pilot aboard – a component of an Unmanned aircraft system (UAS) – How it works? – Remotely controlled by human or – Travel according to a predefined path In general, UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) is the combination of Drone in the air and control system on the ground. 3
- 4. Drone components – A drone consists of 4 main parts: 4 1. Body 2. Frame 3. Propellers 4. Controller Body Frame Propellers
- 5. How Drone Works – 3 modes of motion: Lift, Yaw and Pitch. 1. Lift: fly drone upwards 2. Yaw: rotation about center of XY plane. 3. Pitch: rotation other than center of XY plane 5 When we send command through the controller, the antennas on drone will receive the signal and perform as commanded.
- 6. Types of Drones – Types of drones can be divided in 4 categories with different number of propellers: 6 Number of Propellers Size Range Equipment Tricopter 3 Nano Drones Close Range Drones Drones with Camera Quadcopter 4 Mini Drones Short Range Drones Drones with FPV Hexacopter 6 Regular Size Drones Mid-Range Drones Drones with GPS Octocopter 8 Large Drones Endurance Drones Drones with stabilizers
