Autonomous Quad Plane

September 2024 – November 2024

Cresskill, NJ

Overview

Designed an autonomous quad plane concept, including aerodynamic profiling and full SolidWorks modeling of wings and fuselage

Used XFLR5 to select airfoils and determine wing sizing, and performed flow simulations in SolidWorks to refine the design

Selected electronics components based on prior UAV experience, planning to implement ArduPilot for autonomous flight

Conceptualized integration of multiple sensors and planned iterative testing with different engine types to optimize performance
