undergraduate student of engineering in electronics and telecommunications dicipline..


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

always interested in fighter jets and war planes...grew up fascinated nd inspired by them soon after i flew my first RC plane which eventually crash landed i decided to build one...now here is where the problem lies i have to start from scratch i just know the basic aerodynamics but still way to go to design nd build my dream RC-UAV

hello I've made my first UAV and its now all ready to fly let me give you guys a quick specsThe wing span is about 2 meters and the aircraft weights 1.5 kg approxThe wing area is about 9000 square centimeters i have pictures attached withinn..Its…

Sourav Jena replied to Sourav Jena's discussion suitable lightweight fuselage- design and material
"hello tim!
Tools ? yes i do have the basic tools.. a cutter and sand paper and i used to build myself a wing and a fuselage made of Styrofoam and then i got all fancy and built myself a triangular frame made out of cardboard and used Styrofoam board…"

Sourav Jena replied to Sourav Jena's discussion What should be the length of my fuselage
"yes it is a conventional aircraft indeed...! the only thing i wonder is what reference can i use to decide the fuselage length does it depend on any of the airplanes parts like wingspan or the gross weight od the airplane etc??"

Sourav Jena replied to Sourav Jena's discussion Airfoil selection for my UAV
"yeah i want to be fly for a long time but for a given considerable range lets say a radius of 2-3 miles... i tired keepin the aspect ratio high but still unclear about about other parameters...would be nice if u could help"
