Greetings , folks.
It happens so that I want to build an RC uav fpv and this is my first, so i would really appreciate any info input.

I basically want to build an endurance UAV FPV capable of slow flying as well as little high speed flying [60- 80mph]over high altitudes.

I would prefer medium wing loading . With mid mounting or low mounting wings.
preferably straight wing . [no flying wing ]
I heard that Clark-Y airfoils are good for these types of planes.
Should I incorporate flaps?
the wing span preferably is 2 meters.
I will be rear mounting the engine.
I would like to use a 6s lipo and will probably place two or three in parallel to have 10000+ mah.

For the fpv a camera with 10+ optical zoom would be good.
With flying range of 10+ kilometers I think dragonlink is good for RC.
I don't know about the video yet.

So I could really use some help knowing airfoil shapes, wing shapes, air frame material , motor battery etc.

First of all welcome to RCI ...
I just want to know what is your budget for this project?
Because according ur budget we can suggest things..
And are you doing it alone or under any guidance....??

Good luck.. read this pls http://www.rcindia.org/rc-general-topics/the-dgca-strikes-back/

Well the budget could be around 50000 rupees, i will try to wrap it under a hundred thousand.

You could dub me 'He Who Walks Alone', a phrase taken from the book Inheritance.
Like Jason Bourne in the Bourne series or Adian Pearce from the Watchdogs but I would be glad if I had the guidance of Alfred and Fox from the Dark Knight triology or the company of Ronald and Hermione from Harry Potter.
I am usually solo in my endeavors , probably because I havent found someone with brains like me or someone as 'insane' as me would be the right expression.

Tank You tantragna.
That made an interesting read.
Yes. It might be illegal in here but the thing is I am not just looking for fun flying. Completing this project successfully will enable me to proceed to more challenging projects without people thinking about me as some insane git. People even think that doing this project is insanity.

So again i would appreciate help.

P.S. - I would be building my own design and it would be a little similar to the MQ-9 Reaper.

hello Infamous ...

very refreshing and positive attitude ...

tell me - do you have a background in engineering or/and software ?

your budget is generous . and it is certainly possible ... however it is a tad ambitious
for a complete novice.

apart from the high speed flying part all your requirements could be met with a helium baloon
fitted with electric motors for vector control.(not as glamorous though )

Well... INFAMOUS..... what you are getting into is what may be the GREY area of the Law or the darker side.... Living in mumbai and trying to fly high altitude would be against all laws as you might be infringing into Civil aviation or Military airspace....  This could be big trouble if you happen to infringe it and may also be a potential hazard to actual flying.... Be sure where you stand on the Law before you even but the first item for this project.  Mumbai Airport and the Navy would not be soft on anyone infringing into the safety of Flying at your airfields.

Infamous I think you shouldn't go for fpv as it is your first build and you might not want to see your money falling of out the sky in broken pieces
Just a suggestion though

nevertheless i am going for it. @ saikat.

Well as i said in my earlier post, I am building a plane which DOES NOT REALLY NEED TO FLY!!!
The thing is it must be capable of flying. For demonstration I could do low altitude flights.
And if i really need to fly I wont be flying between skyscrapers of MUMBAI. I would go to Navi Mumbai or even farther in remote areas thus ensuring i dont cross any lines.

Well you see the first run will be without any fpv equipment.
FPV will be added at later stages.

Well..... All I can say is Best Wishes...... go and do as you please.

I was hopping to receive some guidelines and technical knowledge. Disappointed.

Dude INFAMOUS or whoever you are.. You are disappointed? Really? Btw who are you? we are not sure if you are a Anti-National Element trying smart to pick up help from legitimate hobbyists for technical know how's, especially there is a legal cloud hovering above to the sane minded hobbyists, put their hobby and lives in jeopardy?

By the way you are interacting, I can understand that you are a total newbie, who doesn't understand nor have the ability, nor the patience to achieve anything; forget making a UAV. I know this post is going to go through a tough scrutiny and a lot of critics too! But trust me, life is not a cake walk! That too over 'High Altitude' with no knowledge or effort to understand on how everything works! At ground level itself, there would be enough seasonal climate to knock off an average human (just found out today, when a gust of wind blew be away ..no I mean seriously I was knocked off my foot and was an ape for a moment on all my fours) and you want to fly a few kilos of untested, untrusted, uncertified, and god know what more un's there lies that is needed to make an airframe 'airworthy'.

Btw, can you explain the basic laws of flight? the opposing forces that makes an aircraft 'fly' (hint they are two opposing forces, and please I know you have google for it, but honestly did you know before you were 'Disappointed') Mr INFAMOUS (or whoever you are), the politeness ends with this post to help you out, honestly most of us wanted to help you.. but you blew it. Alas! Do you know the weather conditions at the 'high altitude'? or the effect on the craft you are trying to put it up there? I think you should google these and stop accusing people who are passionate in our 'hobby' and this platform was put up by one of us to network, help each other and educate newbies on the know how's, do's, dont's, what's, if's, but's and much more such..

So before you become more 'disappointed', be kind enough to train your brain to do a bit more of 'READING', on this forum, over the internet and something called 'BOOKS'. I know I am sounding like your parent, uncle, aunty, teachers, etc,.. trust me it really works like that. Just for your kind information, me being once upon a time a so called 'gold medalist' in a few national level aeromodelling competition a couple of decades back, am having tough time to put one simple RC plane in the air! So please put more 'EFFORT', 'LEARN', 'BUILD', 'FLY', CRASH & repeat! And even then, if you want to do it again, then come back and restart this wonder topic and we would be more than glad to help you!

MOD EDIT
Some spellings

And I totally forgot to tell you, that there are a few already successfully built, tried, tested UAV's who have shut shop (this is almost all over the world phenomenon, if you were not aware of it), after investing a few tens of lakhs, crores, or more and most of them were totally qualified in the field, and unlike yourself! To name atleast one, 'Asteria', google it!

Sorry for not being sorry to put it straight up your face like this, which is not anymore unlike you did to most of us with your 'disappointment'.

INFAMOUS

i wouldn't discourage you at all, while i still feel it needs to be regulated. remember some who are trying to caution you are doing so because (a) you are new to the forum, who are you? hasn't been established (b) They want to caution you of the dangers in this game, in their own way.

However, there are some who don't want you (or anyone) to become their competitor, less people in this, more is their say and demand so you see all fingers aren't equal

Go right ahead and experiment ! there is plethora of knowledge out there, Dig Deep you will get it

Be advised, it ain't fraught with danger, don't get into shit !! that's all will be my advice

Ashok,

AFAIK Asteria is very much in the market, met and spoke to a guy who was part of the team which made Atom and Cygnus A-10 very recently

Well the word disappointed did work, sorry you had to go mad at me. And if I were a terrorist, i would have common sense not to leave any trace or make a legitimate appearance where anyone could track me.

And you are right, I have a knack of doing things which are beyond my capabilities. And i know this aint easy, trust me i have a history of failed projects [although i am just 7teen].

But you are wrong saying that i haven't got knowledge. You see , most of my time is spent on research.
And i read a LOT. I have read 100s of novels.

Pity I could not meet someone as experienced as you in person, since you live far away.

P.S. - You make Infamous sound really bad. Dont take it literally.
 

Can someone please scrutinize this data.

Gusty sir, got it

Sir I know they are still in, but the commercialisation is still no valid as we know it, and I know whom you met

Trust me, there are!! http://www.funker530.com/isis-moron-tweets-selfie-receives-an-airstrike/

Most of the folks can make out what kind of the person is on the other side of the wire, in today's world. But the world is full of surprises, so caution is the keyword. With my limited experience, I could understand by your 'insane' words, that you are either a teen or stuck in teen [if you know what i mean ]

Research is time consuming, and impatient cannot pursue it any further. Good to know that you love books. It is the best gift a human can get [only when it is/are a good one/few].

Oops, too much!

Honestly, it did sound bad with your previous posts.. Chill dude, nothing's serious; till it isn't

And coming to your last post, I need to do a lot of  Let me see how far myself, or others can decode here.. Good that such a thing got going, which is finally got me  'ing

Good luck and for everyone's [hobbyist's] keep it 'SANE'! 

Edit: got my reply in the wrong side of the quote..

Well.... Mr INFAMOUS..... I am not only disappointing by the bullheadedness of yours by not willing to learn and read between the lines all the learned people here are saying.... Well i guess its your way of making your own road.

I was more disappointing by the handle you have chosen.. being negative may be OK with some people today but being obnoxious is totally unacceptable to me... maybe my grey hairs come in the way of the new "infamous" generation which is coming up and mine which was indeed very famous.

Makes any sense?

Yeah that does make sense,I even have three axis graphs of the data which are harder to decipher.

I just wanted to know if the numbers seem legit and whether I could put a plane in the air based on given data. thats all.

This application is fantastic, these are the graphs but i usually go by the figures.

Which application is this,

I did contribute to ver - 1

This page also has a lot of info on basic and advanced aerodynamics

The graphs are plotted using the tabulated data, which helps in assessing the them. Any erratic values could be spotted, so that necessary changes could be taken to counter the same.

Btw, still we do not know who you are.. Don't you think you can give a simple introduction of yourself!?

OH sorry really. I do not really know how things go on here.

My name is Muneeb Chougle and I have bidden seventeen years of life in this world.
I hail from Andheri Mumbai. I lived abroad in the Gulf region for 15 years in various places. I came to India to pursue further studies - diploma in mech. engg.

Now as of my interests, I have always been interested in science and arts from an earlier age. And I as a person was always different from others . I was and am an ambivert [between extrovert and introvert] not very social. My mind wanders a lot and I often question things.

I am also very interested in computers and medical science but sadly I am unable to go into it. I read a lot of books . I only see real good movies mostly from Nolan like interstellar , inception so you must know what I am like.

As of my projects my first major one was a hydroelectricity generator which was successful . After which followed some failed projects. Then I bought a heli and researched about aeromodelling  . It was after that that I am embarked on a real difficult project which still hasen't  been completed and I will complete it after this one - an axial 6 stage turbojet engine. But I was limited by lack of availability of materials and 5 axis cnc milling machine.

There is lot more to say but I will wrap it here.
If there are any more queries pls ask away. 

 

Do not mistake this place any different than your friendly/unfriendly [ie., how you treat them, will reflect back] neighbourhood, only the other difference is that we sit across wire/wireless gap. So basic etiquette of saying hello will put things in order, rather than barging in and say it is 'discouraging'... Lol, I will drop this word to this point only and won't pursue any further. Trust me, this is how we keep the trend rolling for 'troll's, here or elsewhere [but within some sense of society we live in]!

Please don't feel you are different from any others out here/there. Every being is special and unique in their ways and terms, and it is the very basic criteria thing to be 'the one' and not a photocopy. So don't get carried away in the 'pseudo limelight' or 'dark shadows' of it, just pursue which ever way your direction of perception drives.i.e.,  Keep your thoughts clean, trust me, that is all it takes to keep thing rolling/flying/swimming in the right attitude.

So you are a 'mech'. Nice to know that, but!! You are a mech, interested in computers & medical science, had made a successful hydroelectricity gen project (academic I guess!), now wants to make an UAV, that doesn't fly!

And which type of heli you say you had? Also, there are a few turbojet project threads that are already up here, might help you pursue it further!? Dig it! This forum is quite huge and rich in content, and that was the main reason I registered and logged on after being anonymous reader for years!

Coming back to this topic, how much have you educated yourself in the field of model aviation? Have you tried the hands on a simple sim or like that before you decided to make an UAV for high altitudes? Very important step that many violates and then repent on it.

See, I started aeromodelling around 10-11yrs old, and am 38 now. But that doesn't make me a ~28yr experienced, but only ~28yr into. I or rather we (of my timers) didn't have the privilage of simulators as they were non-existent afaik. I could only pursue till the time I was in NCC, and bid it good bye until a year back. So my practical experience is limited to a few years hands-on, but it never got off my mind to forget or learn more about this part of science. I have worked on real estate projects and have solved issues related to HVAC that were mysterious for my peers, just because of my bit of know how's into aerodynamics. Like wise, my knowledge into electronics, programming, mech tinkering had its effects and is being a continuous process.. Ask any elderly folks, they will immediately carry the knowledge through a smile, that is because of their past memories. A few non-smile memories haunt too, so beware! Oops too much phil!

I have a question, from where did you dig that data?

So you are îñfä møüs else where too eh!? ID authenticated

I made that name my alias when I was in 9th standard.

Motocalc - software. extremely easy to use and saves lots of time. Even then I had to generate 100s of Inflight analysis reports of different powertrain combinations until I narrowed them to 3 powertrains.
 

I have a further question.
I am confused as to how I am going to build an airframe. correct me if I am wrong.

I will use carbon fiber ribs in the wings and formers in the fuselage with carbon fiber spars going all through them.
But I am not able to find a suitable skin for it.
I will probably reinforce the skin with carbon fiber or glass fiber or if possible Kevlar from hobbyking.

And my wing will probably be a slightly forward swept semi symmetric Clark Y wing located at three forths length of the fuselage with inverted v-tail for the stabilizers and canards at the front.
This could be bizarre but i think it would work .
 

I will share the blueprint as soon as Complete it

Muneeb

after all the research (on you, when i say that i mean 100% of it) ! i've got only one advice! stay out of FPV / UAV. i can assure you, if you do, you are heading for trouble.

Just do plain aeromodelling as a hobby, finish your studies. This bug can be very addictive and it will reflect on your studies grades and future.

Rest is upto you, i am signing off, done advising

FPV is just a camera module attached on the nose with a video transmitter WHICH WILL BE INSTALLED AT LATER STAGES, when primary objective of flight is completed .I have said this earlier and i say it again , it will not be on the initial stages.

So what exactly is the purpose of this UAV? What are you intending to do? Without a purpose, nothing is pursued right?!

I second Gusty [@rcpilotacro] sir's advise here. Keep it simple, first learn to control a simple rc craft. We would also suggest start with a free-flight, to which many would say boring. But it will teach a lot of nuances that no others can spoon feed you. It is better you get hold of a simulator, I strongly advise. Again! You cannot be a doctorate in any field without going through the schooling right?

What you are dreaming is not the way an aircraft or for that matter any craft is designed and built. It should have a problem to be solved, to be a solution, then you start shortlisting the available materials and sources, then you get to the drawing board. It will take a LOT of time, money and effort to DIY! Starting small and slow, is the key to success!

And FYI, FPV is not just a wireless camera system! There is more pain than the pleasure with it.. Again, don't waste too much time outside academics/primary life. Take your call accordingly..

thank you, sir. I will get hold of a radio and run simulators. lets just say that the uav is just the final product, and i am going to fly a small trainer first. You see the purpose of the UAV is simply that I could advance to more challenging projects slowly
just like first learning a park flyer instead of UAV . UAV will simply add to my achievements.

1000% true 

Well INFAMOUS.... you project as stated here is far too far fetched.... I am not sure of the cost of it with all that Glass Fiber and Carbon Fiber..... Well.. Sky is the limit in such cases.... Even seasoned aeromodellers will probably not go so ambitious in their model making......

Well people here are  two renders of the Endurance that I made on 3ds max. Took me two days to learn the basics, it was confusing
and three days to build the plane. I have completed an A1 sized blueprint with dimensions and it was really a though job. I wonder how tough it will be to move from paper to building it and then to flying it. Let me know if you want the blueprint or other perspective views.

I wonder how often the DGCA and other government agencies check our forum.

I dont think this would bother any international agency cause this is nothing but Indian government can get pretty worked up. And as this is the largest RC forum in India they may be keeping tabs.

Well these are they guys who get Aromodelling a bad name and apprehensions in mind of security agencies.... Hey young man come to the basics and be just an aeromodeller.... leave the designing and advance stuff to the guys who are supposed to do that.

@shobhit17 I agree to disagree to the point that leave it to the experts to do these things. Why should we simply leave all these things to the so called expers? Why should we wait for someone to do it? Why can't we do it? What is wrong in making a new design of uav's?

A note to the OP please put your build on hold until the rules are clear.

Yeah I will probably patent the blueprints and design, and approach the WPC WING of government for permission to operate this aircraft.

And as for leaving things for the experts, how did they become experts??? We have to go out of the way to become somethone extraordinary.
We have examples of genius men and women in history who did bizarre things and were successful.

for example take Thomas Alva Edison. He had over thousand patents for his inventions, didnt leave it to the experts, did he?? dropped out of school because teachers thought he was a fool. He did chemical experiments at the age of 12 - 13 and even put fire to car.

And you dont need to retort back saying I am not Edison.  

I really admire your dedication man! 

You seem to be putting the right amount of effort in the right direction. I wish you loads of luck.
Do try a simple airplane before spending on the big thing to get a hang of the basics.

slick looking craft there.

couple of questions - where is the cg located.? - looks to be in front of the
leading of the wing
 
why the swept forward wings ?  you could use conventional swept back or straight wings
that way - you will get a longer tail moment while also retaing the CG at a safe place in relation
to wing chord.

canards are too small

did you run virtual simulation of the design to validate aerodynamic intregrity ?
.

Well.... BIG WORDS indeed.... Thomas Alva Edison and people like him are all history, when a so called not well studied man with his common sense could do a lot.... Today designing an aeroplane is BIG business and needs a lot of research and study.... You building a UAV too will need a hell lot of Aerodynamics and material science to get the right material and the correct electronics of the what you call the UAV.  If it was so simple India with its large population could have been the world's leader in UAV export...  What we buy in the market from whoever is not of reliable performance..... the reliability required for something like a costly UAV needs to be extremely high..

As you say you are a nubee... like most experienced people here.... nearly all men worth their aeromodelling have been giving you the advice of going by easier and a simpler model..... latest example is the last line of Swapnil.... and earlier  rcpilotacro...... I am just not sure of your knowledge level about what you need to build this so called UAV.

Go easy and take the advice..... venturing into the "grey" territory is not advisable..... listen to rcpilotacro... Swapnil and may more out here.....

or else... you are not the first one to go BUST... on day one..... will just add to the statics of it.

This thread needs to be given as much publicity as possible....

Well said Shobhit Sir.
Infamous you might don't know but he is advising you after his more than 20yrs of service in IAF.
I learned from him a lot and that is still helpful for us.   

IAF ,thats cool. As a pilot??? If yes what planes did shobhit sir Fly???

Antriksh..... Just leave this guy.... he would not take any well meaning advice and so I guess we might as well stay away from him and let him do what he wishes to and how he wishes to......  From now I am off from this thread and so I guess wiser people like KK, Sundaram and RCPILOTACRO, and many more have been.......

Well I know treading on this journey is not going to be easy .... many successful people have faced the same and I am nothing and I am no exception. But its not easy as many say people will discourage you, don't heed them...while there will be advisors .... its hard because if I have the capabilities to do it ( I don't know) but will later realize that I could have done it but didn't do it just because I was discouraged.

Keeping in mind all the advices of respected people here... I have decided to put temporary halt to all further operations of endurance craft.
I will probably get a parkflyer and be done with it.

Hello in famous... I have a small query with u... Can I ask that

Yeah sure.

Do u know to fly an 3 channel airplane...
