Room Argos  10:30

Although UAS aerodynamics is for the most part similar to that of manned aircraft, some designs requirements are unique for micro to small and high altitude, long-endurance vehicles. This session discusses critical aspects of aerodynamics for fixes and rotary wing UAS along with lighter than air technologies.
