5. First Test Flight of the U.A.V.

This was the first test flight of our U.A.V. it was done near the Temple of Saaketri (few minutes ahead of Sukhna Lake).

The fuselage of the bird is made of EPP foam. It has a wingspan of 1500 mm, we will use a 1200 MAH LIPO Battery (11.1 Volts and 120 grams) which will give us 15 minutes of flight (approx.). Attached to it is an Electronic Speed Controller (PWM) which controls the brush-less DC motor in the fuselage. The bird or the fuselage runs on four controls - 
  1. Aileron
  2. Elevator
  3. Rudder and
  4. Throttle
Check out the catch by our RC instructor (Daaman Joyia) in the end !!! Enjoy the flight !!!!
