Tilt Rotor UAV Design

We designed this small tilt-rotor electric UAV as a hobby and side project, one year ago. We did the complete design of the UAV as well as its tilt-rotor mechanism. After the completion of its comprehensive aerodynamic and control design, we also fabricated this UAV using balsa and plywood. This UAV has done several successful flights so far and even has won one design, build, and fly competition. This UAV has the capability of vertical takeoff and landing through tilt-rotor in-flight transition. A few of its visuals and tilt-rotor mechanism animation is enclosed in the same folder.
