Trapezoidal Wings (also called Tapered Wings) are an aircraft wing geometry with a trapezoidal shape. The chord legth decreases towards the tip. They can be swept or unswept. The main advantages of trapezoidal wings are:
Since my last update, a few things have changed. I tried to test the Mateksys F405 Wing flight controller with Ardupilot, but I ran into some issues. The calibration worked for the servos, but for some reason, it was irresponsive…
The next step in building a 3D printed drone, is to lay out a more detailed plan on where to place all the hardware, like the flight controller, the sensors, the motors and the battery. This includes figuring out the…
After coming up with the basic planning for my 3d printed drone project, I have gone into more detail regarding the constuction and assembly. Assembling the servos I am using standard 9 g micro servos. If you are building RC…
In this project, I will start building a small 3D printed fixed wing drone. I am relatively new to building aircraft, so I am still in the learning phase myself. My plan is to first build a drone that just…
