Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle with deployable components (UAVDC) is disclosed. The UAVDC may comprise a fuselage, at least one wing, and at least one control surface. In some embodiments, the UAVDC may further comprise a propulsion means and/or a modular payload. The UAVDC may be configured in a plurality of arrangements. For example, in a compact arrangement, the UAVDC may comprise the at least one wing stowed against the fuselage and the at least one control surface stowed against the fuselage. In a deployed arrangement, the UAVDC may comprise the at least one wing deployed from the fuselage and the least one control surface deployed from the fuselage. In an expanded arrangement, the UAVDC may comprise the at least one wing telescoped to increase a wingspan of the deployed arrangement.

Abstract: A telescoping wing system comprises a first wing section comprising a substantially hollow interior; and a second wing section configured to be stowed within the interior of the first wing section such that an external surface of the second wing section is adjacent to an internal surface of the first wing section. The first wing section and the second wing section form a first wingspan in a first arrangement, the first arrangement comprising the second wing section stowed within the interior of the first wing section, and the first wing section and the second wing section form a second wingspan in a second arrangement, the second arrangement comprising the first wing section displaced along at least a portion of a length between a first end and a second end of the second wing section.
