Estimation of Hover Endurance for an Electric Multicopter with Experimental Validation of Results
摘要
One of the key characteristics of multicopters is their ability to hover precisely, which enables their use in various missions. Furthermore, electric multicopters are already widespread today due to their simplicity and ease of operation. However, they have relatively short hover endurance, making the ability to accurately determine hover time crucial. Hover endurance is calculated based on momentum theory and the application of fundamental equations. The procedure is validated through experimental results on an electric multicopter with a takeoff weight of 48.8 kg.
