AERODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF A QUADCOPTER DRONE FOR HEAVY LOAD LIFTING

Abstract

In recent years, the use of drones for package delivery has gained significant attention due to their potential to transform logistics and transportation. However, one of the major challenges in drone delivery systems is the limitation on the payload capacity of individual drones. This project focuses on exploring the formation of drones for lifting heavier loads, utilizing various formations and components to optimize the delivery process. Different drone formations including Vee, Front, Column, and Echelon are studied to determine their efficacy in lifting heavier loads. The project also researches into the main components of drones such as motors, frames, and propellers, selecting appropriate specifications to meet the requirements of heavy load transportation. By leveraging the collective strength of multiple drones in formation, this project aims to overcome the payload limitations of single drone deliveries and enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of package delivery systems.
