Design & Manufacture of a Rotorcraft Chabely Amo, Louisny Dufresne, Robert Johnson, Mohammed Nabulsi, Taniwa Ndebele, Victoria Rogers, Kimberlee Steinman, Mitchell Stratton FAMU-FSU College of Engineering IME #8/ME #31 Mitchell Stratton

Team Organization 2 IME #8/ME #31 Mitchell Stratton

Background  A rotorcraft is a flying machine that uses lift generated by wings called rotor blades that revolve around a mast  Rotary unmanned aerial vehicles often fall into one of two classifications: 1.High payload capacity but low portability 2.High portability but a reduced payload capacity. 3 Figure 1. Example of a Rotorcraft [1] IME #8/ME #31 Mitchell Stratton

Goal Statement and Objective  The project is sponsored by the US Air Force, the requirements are as follows: 4 Figure 2. Military Backpack [2]  Design a rotorcraft that can: 1.Fit in a military backpack (23”x14.5”x15”) 2.Carry a payload of at least 30 pounds 3.Be made with commercial off the shelf (COTS) components 4.Travel up to approximately 1 mile 5.Be easily maintained and used in the field  Design the manufacturing processes to be used in creating the rotorcraft  Build a prototype of the rotorcraft  State the protocols for the operation and assembly of the rotorcraft IME #8/ME #31 Louisny Dufresne

Previous Work  Design proposed by: Intern Cameron Alexander  Hexacopter configuration. 5 Figure 3. Deployed View of Cameron’s Design Figure 4. Collapsed View of Cameron’s Design IME #8/ME #31 Kimberlee Steinmann

Rotorcraft Configurations Two types: 1.Coaxial Setup (X8)  Two engines mounted co-axially on the ends of each boom  Excellent Lifting Power  Easier Portability 2.Radial Setup (V8)  One engine mounted on the end of each boom Figure 5. Multi-copter Configurations [3] 6 IME #8/ME #31 Kimberlee Steinmann

Schedule – Gantt Chart 19 IME #8/ME #31 Louisny Dufresne

Lessons Learned  Order parts on time  Check the specifications for each individual component  Call manufacturers to confirm components can be delivered on time  Take into consideration minor details  Better team, sponsor, and advisor communication  Hold each individual accountable for their role  Take into consideration machine shop time  Implement better organization 20 IME #8/ME #31 Victoria Rogers Figure 8. Lessons Learned Guy

Conclusion  Successfully designed and developed a Rotorcraft with coaxial configuration.  Successfully completed the VARTM process for manufacturing of two baseplates.  Successfully minimized the weight of the Rotorcraft to be under 30 pounds.  Ordered & received all components necessary to fly the Rotorcraft.  Due to FAA restrictions the team will only be allowed to hover the Rotorcraft 21 IME #8/ME #31 Victoria Rogers Verifying Objectives:Status Be made with commercial off the shelf (COTS) components Yes Be easily maintained and used in the field Yes Fit in a military backpack (23”x14.5”x15”) Unknown Carry a payload of at least 30 pounds Unknown Travel up to approximately 1 mile Unknown Table 2.
