Fixed-Wing UAV

Jens Nielsen
in Modeling
6 0 Beginner
This video details the rapid design process for a high-efficiency wing using minimal steps in CAD.First, we import the exact coordinates of a high-efficiency airfoil from a profile generator, creating a critical closed profile line—the essential starting point. Next, we define the entire geometry by establishing simple horizontal planes at the wing root and the tip. Finally, we use the powerful Loft feature to connect these profiles, mathematically generating the complex wing surface. This efficient technique allows us to define a large, high-performance wing quickly while maintaining the precision needed for a 900 gram MTOW target.

4 0 Intermediate
We took as a reference the set of solutions achieved in the NASA CHALLENGE: Ejection Mechanism Design for the SPEED Test Architecture, and we proceeded to propose alternatives not limited to the rear ejection of the capsule. In the M25 Chair - Synthesis of Mechanisms and Machines, we recognize this task as: Divergent-Convergent Creative Postprocessing.
