Parametric Optimization of a Cyclogiro Aircraft Design for Efficient Hover with Aeroelastic Considerations
A minimization procedure is proposed to orient the design of a vertical take-off and landing drone towards sustainability.The vehicle is a novel cycloidal rotor drone and the principal objective is thump-it to yield the best ratio of payload to power consumption.The drone blades, rotor arms, and frame are designed for fused deposition modeling addi
