Abstract

A hybrid aerial vehicle (HAV), featured combination of a quadrotor system and a fixed-wing system, is one of the most promising configurations having both a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) capability and high cruise performance. In this paper, a HAV has been designed and prototyped to analyze the performance of the HAV. The specifications of the HAV are summarized. The aerodynamic coefficients of the HAV derived from CFD data and the influence of axial flow on the maximum thrust of quad propellers that is calculated using QPROP are demonstrated, respectively. The wind resistant capability of the HAV is analyzed from two aspects according to different wind direction. The factors which have important influence on the wind resistant capability of the HAV are analyzed and the solutions to improve the wind resistant capability of the HAV are presented.
