Popis: | This study provides an effective solution to the problem of deflection on yaw axes of air-vehicles capable of three-rotor Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL). Most VTOL aircraft are produced with five rotors in national context. Four of these rotors are used for landing and taking off and are positioned to balance each other. The other rotor is positioned to fly with fixed wings. Therefore, no deviation in the yaw axis is experienced during descent-off. Three rotor VTOL configurations are available as an alternative to five rotor VTOL air-vehicles. This study is available through the three rotor VTOL prototypes that we have developed. The biggest drawback of three rotor VTOLs is the instability due to the position of the rotors during takeoff. This instability has been eliminated and three rotor VTOLs have been more advantageous than other configurations. |
