Abstract:This research article presents a design methodology for primary control surfaces (Ailerons, Rudder and Elevator) for experimental unmanned radio-controlled aircraft. The methodology is based on the proposal and standardization of the required mechanical and aerodynamic analysis for each control surface sizing, considering the SAE Aero Design competition objectives within Micro Class. It is used on empirical results previously described in references about aeronautical design, computerized fluids dynamics (CFD)… Show more
