Composite Material Testing for UAV Development

Since the invention of the first UAV's, different industries realized it's capabilities and potential uses. Drones and UAV's are part of our everyday life and their development has seen an unprecedented speed due to their multiple applications, from scientific research to military applications. When we talk about UAV's we also talk about composite materials. Today's drones and UAV's are using almost exclusively carbon fiber, glass fiber and 3D printed materials. This paper presents the development and testing of fiber carbon materials along with a future concept of an UAV. In the end of this paperthe results of testing the materials are presented.
