Specifications :
● The wingspan should not exceed 150 cm.
● The maximum permissible weight (without payload) is 2500
grams.
3 Cell 11.2V battery is the largest permitted size for a battery
used for servos and the propeller motor.
● The combined weight of the propeller and motor should not
weigh more than 100 gm and should not have a motor kV
higher than 1000 kV.
● Propeller length should not exceed 12 inches.
● Only single-motor aircraft are permitted.

i.Thrust to Weight ratio:


weight=2500g+500g(payload) =3000g
Taking TWR=0.5
TWR= Thrust/weight ;
Thrust=1.5kg
i. Bldc Motor :
1.Power required:
Power required = (thrust x velocity)/efficiency
Thrust(N) =14.7N
velocity =15m/s
Efficiency = 80%
Power required=275.6W

Motor power= power required x 30%(loss factor; thumbs law)


Motor power= 357.6W
2. Calculating kv :
KV= Rpm/Voltage
Using 3s battery : voltage= 11.1V
Rpm =1110
KV= 1000
Selected motor: DYS D3536-8 1000 KV BLDC Motor
1. KV: 1000KV
2. Motor size(mm): 5*36
3. Shaft size: 5mm 4. Weight: 99g 5. Voltage: 2-4S Lipo

ii.ESC:
maximum current= 357.6/11.1 = 32.2
max current x1.2 = 38.6A

ESC : SURPASS Flier 50A ESC Li:2-4S

1. Brand: SURPASS Flier

iii.Battery:
a)Battery Capacity (Wh)=Power Consumption (W)×Flight Time (h)/ Efficiency Factor
350x9/0.8 = 4023
Capacity = 4200mAh

b) Current=CapacityxC rating
C rating=35C

automation: connecting raspberrypi with Pixhawk


https://youtu.be/kB9YyG2V-nA?si=Dv7XLei5_QKW0yfz
steps:
1.Connect the Pixhawk to the Raspberry Pi using a dedicated cable with a 6-pin DF-13 connector .

2. Flash the ArduCopter firmware to the Pixhawk using Mission Planner


3. Setting up the Raspberry Pi SD card with the latest Raspbian OS Lite
4.Downloading and using Etcher to flash the Raspberry Pi OS Lite image to the SD card
5. Using SSH to connect to the Raspberry Pi after flashing the OS
6. Installing necessary Python packages, including Dronekit and Mavproxy, on the Raspberry Pi
7. Configuring the Raspberry Pi's serial port to communicate with the Pixhawk
