Experimental Determination of the Moment of Inertias of USM e-UAV

Abstract:

This paper presents the experimental determination of the moment of inertia of USM e-UAV by using pendulum method. Compound pendulum experiment is used to determine the moment of inertia about x and y axes while the moment of inertia about z-axis is determined using bifilar torsion pendulum method. An experimental setup is developed with appropriate dimension to accommodate USM e-UAV. Experimental data are presented and discussed.
