Abstract

This paper describes the conceptual design and development test procedure of a unmanned scaled-down personal air vehicle(PAV) with drive and flight dual mode capability. Trade studies on operational requirements led to the suggestion of a quad tilt prop platform which has nacelle tilt capability with multi rotor configuration. Motors for propeller propulsion and driving mechanism were integrated into a single nacelle, then they were implemented by nacelle tilt mechanism for conversion between the drive and the flight modes. Primary design parameters and initial specifications were confirmed through conceptual design, then functional tests were performed with the test platforms for the drive and the flight modes.

본 논문에서는 지상 주행과 비행이 가능한 이중모드 PAV의 무인 축소모델 개념설계 및 개발시험 과정에 관하여 기술하였다. 운용 요구도를 검토한 결과 멀티로터 형상에 나셀틸트 기능을 결합한 쿼드 틸트 프롭형 비행체가 제안되었다. 프로펠러 추진을 위한 모터와 주행을 위한 구동장치를 하나의 나셀에 집적하고, 나셀 틸트 구조에 의해 비행 및 주행모드의 변경이 가능하도록 구현하였다. 개념설계를 통해 주요 설계변수와 초기 제원이 확정되었고, 비행모드 및 주행모드 시험용 플랫폼을 제작하여 기능시험을 수행하였다.
