Swans VTOL UAV has the tandem wing structure which features the optimized airfoil, aerodynamic optimization, increased lift-to-drag ratio, in this way to improve efficiency, and as well as safety.
It is made of carbon fiber composite material, which is of light weight, high strength, also waterproof.
Swans VTOL UAV adopts four-rudders surface wing mixed control methodology, this redundancy technology offers Swans extra safety feature, even if two rudders fail at the same time, the remaining ones can be used for safely landing.
Swans VTOL UAV has higher aspect ratio wings can be used because of inherently reduced bending moments on the wing; and overall aircraft gross weight is reduced due to structural and aerodynamic efficiency.
No need of lever, the propellers are installed at the top or bottom of the wing to reduce UAV weight and improve the conversion efficiency between multi-rotor and fixed wing.
