Young Engineering

The Aeronautical engineering project is to construct a Toy air plane. The original inverter of this projects is Jeffrey G. Rehkemper et al. The Aeronautical project is a dream work for every engineering student of this stream! Building a toy plane by themselves and making it work with a handheld device is so cool and encouraging. 

This projects is posted here on a request from one of the Indian engineering student. So when we got this research paper, we were every interested to share it to the benefits of many other students. TO explain the basics of this BE engineering project, It is a toy airplane assembly that could fly. The main advantage of this project is the low cost and the durability. The plane assembly will also include the plane having the radio receiver and a microprocessor. The batteries are also available for the powering the PCB available. The printed circuit board will have the microprocessor and the radio receiver attached. So as usual, the plane can be operated from the handheld remote controller by the wireless communication. As the plane receives the signal by the radio receiver, the actions are taken accordingly.

Sample of this RC plane construction project: Existing propeller-driven toy airplanes utilizing radio control usually have single or twin propellers provided on the airframe. The propellers are driven by a motor, an engine or the like, so that the toy plane can be made to fly freely in the air. Existing toy airplanes generally have propellers employed only for driving the airplane. Those airplanes require an elevator or a rudder to direct the airplane upward or downward, or right or left. For such toy airplanes, a control servo and a mechanical mechanism for controlling the elevator and the rudder are necessary, and thereby the airplane is difficult to control and the weight increased. In addition, a driving source for the propellers is required to have a large output, resulting in an increase in the cost of the toy as a whole. Moreover, in respect to such control of the elevator and the rudder, responsiveness to changes in direction and elevation for the radio controlled toy is quite good. The sensitivity of the elevator and rudder to control signals from the radio controller causes the airplane to be extremely difficult to fly. Moreover, such controls require time and practice to master, thereby creating a frustrating experience and increasing the likelihood of a crash for a beginner. Due to the large number of parts in existing toy airplanes, the material used to construct the parts of existing toy airplanes, and the shape of the fuselage of existing toy airplanes, such crashes could cause substantial damage to the plane, thereby creating a frustrating flying experience for a beginner.
