Modernization of an aircraft-type UAV to ensure vertical takeoff and landing

https://doi.org/10.17586/0021-3454-2025-68-1-50-55

Abstract

Results of upgrading an unmanned aircraft of the airplane type are presented. For the purposes of upgrading, the units of the unmanned airplane-type aircraft are developed and manufactured, providing vertical takeoff and landing of the aircraft. Presented results of flight tests demonstrate the feasibility of upgrading the finished aircraft to a vertical takeoff and landing aircraft by reducing the takeoff and landing distance, and the ability to switch to hover mode, as well as increasing the cruising speed, which allows for faster completion of flight mission.
