: Dear all,
: Can anyone tell me what is the "critical technology" of UAVs?
Hi
Depending on the useage, it invloves reliable enigne, radio control,two way data link (RF), instrumenation, like accelerometer, gyro (X, Y ,X axis)GPS for tracking and compass for heading calculation, pressure sensor for altitude calculation and microprocessor to manage all the related operations, servos are needed for controlling the control surfaces. Techo is needed for calculating engine rpm and some kind of control to remain the consatnt RPM for level altitude. If u need any more info please let me know at my email fakhre@rocketmail.com.
Thanks.
