Abstract
The aim of the study is the development of a VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) bicopter, utilizing Autodesk Inventor and Ultimaker Cura software. Design models were inspired by the V22-Osprey and Samson SA-2 from the Avatar movie. Composite materials (carbon fiber and PLA for 3D printing) were chosen due to their high-performance capabilities, as aerospace technology is in an ongoing development and evolution. The construction of the bicopter employed the FAAT method, and for control, the MATEK F411-WSE was utilized to process data from sensors, with specific firmware and the BetaFLIGHT interface for optimizing drone performance.
