Abstract
Quadcopters have a unique characteristic unlike the other conventional flying objects like vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL), and has a leading aspect in multiple applications like war fare, traffic updates, surveillance, festival places and mostly dense areas. Design of a quadcopter is an important aspect for its aerodynamics of which modeling and analysis are two key areas invol.ved in its manufacturing. This paper focuses on the modeling and structural analysis of quadcopters frame. Modeling is carried out in AutoCAD 2016 software and analysis of various parts is performed using ANSYS 17.0 software. Results obtained are compared to sustain the loads generated in the quadcopter. It is found that the proposed design is safe as very small deformations occurred on the plates.
