    Abstract: A wing and propeller design may reduce the power required to propel an aircraft (400) in flight. This may be achieved by reducing downwash and trailing vortices that occur naturally on the aircraft's wings. A reduction in downwash and trailing vortices may in turn reduce the overall drag on the aircraft. In one embodiment, an aircraft includes a number of propellers (410, 420, ..., 450, 460) N prop , wherein each propeller comprises a diameter d prop , has a propeller efficiency η prop , and is configured to absorb power p prop to rotate at a rate RPM to generate thrust for a flight speed V of the aircraft. The aircraft may further include a total power p total absorbed by the propellers that is approximately p prop × N prop , a wing having a circulation distribution, wherein the wing comprises a wingspan B, a drag D that is approximately equal to p total × η prop / V. For V and B , the circulation distribution, d prop , and RPM substantially minimizes D.

    Abstract: An aircraft, in particular an unmanned aerial vehicle with wing-borne flight mode and hover flight mode, comprises a wing structure (4) having a left (6), middle (7), and right wing section (8). A support structure extends from the wing structure (4), and has an upper and lower support section. Each one of the left and right wing section (6, 8), and upper and lower support section (18, 20) has a thrust unit (10, 12, 22, 24). Left and right wingtip sections are rotatable relative to a left and right wing base section, respectively, around an axis extending substantially in a lengthwise direction of the wing structure. The thrust units (10,12) of the left and right wing sections(6, 8) are provided at the respective wingtip sections, in particular at the extremities thereof.

    Abstract: A sensor/emitter arrangement (M1-M3) is integrated into the fuselage (120) structure of a specially designed air vehicle (100), in which the air vehicle is configured for optimizing operation of the sensor/emitter arrangement (M1-M3) with respect to at least azimuthal lines of sight radiating along a azimuthal reference plane of the air vehicle (100). The azimuthal reference plane intersects the air vehicle fuselage (120). In at least some embodiments, the fuselage (120) is formed with a plurality of oblate cross-sections that facilitate maximizing the room available for a sensor/emitter array (172, 174, 176) that is elongated along an elongate axis that may be aligned with the azimuthal reference plane. In at least some embodiments one or more such elongate axes may be inclines to the longitudinal (roll) axis and the pitch axis of the air vehicle (100). In at least some embodiments, the air vehicle may have a blunt aft end incorporating an elongate aft-facing sensor/emitter array (172, 174, 176).

    Abstract: A wing for an unmanned aircraft (400) adapted for image acquisition, surveillance or other applications consists of a ribbed frame (100) and a foam (200) wherein the ribbed frame (100) is integrated. The foam (200) has a container (301, 02, 303) for holding the electric and/or electronic components. The foam (200) constitutes the outer layer of the unmanned aircraft (400) at impact side (204, 205, 206). The wing can be produced at low cost and low complexity in large volumes, increases the impact resistance and safety when used in civil areas, and is removable and disposable thereby enabling reuse of the electric and/or electronic components.
