Basic Study of Tilting Rotor Type Quadcopter

- The frame construction of H type and + type and X types is compared -

Abstract

The mobility and the large area are evaluated, and tilt rotor type vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) machine is being expected by not only the army but also the private organization. The tilt rotor mechanism is used for the flying mode conversion. The tilt rotor mechanism of minimum degree of freedom is added to the quadrotor helicopter, and it proposes a new usage in the present study. This report compares three kinds of frame types of the tilt rotor mechanism.
