Abstract

By gaining practical experience in the actual construction of flights or other aerodynamic structures in real time, one can gain a better understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of the intensive models used in the study of aeronautics. As a result, a new effort to design, develop, and fly a radio-controlled airplane was initiated. In most cases, the RC plane is powered by a rechargeable battery, which places a cap on the amount of time it can spend in the air. A few solar-powered aircraft, both manned and unmanned, have been designed and flown in past few years. RC aircraft utilizes solar cells to collect solar energy for immediate usage, while storing the remainder for night flight. Solar-powered RC plane are attracting a growing amount of interest in the recent research and development efforts of several sectors due to the significant lengthening in flight duration that they promise. The goal of the project was to design and build a RC plane with a wingspan of 1400 millimeters that would be powered by a mix of solar cells and batteries. The primary goal is to significantly extend the amount of time that the RC plane may remain in the air by using the power that is generated from the solar cells. The design of the power system begins with the selection of an appropriate system architecture, followed by the selection of an appropriate set of components relating to solar system. During stable level flight, the solar-powered RC plane's battery voltage decreases at a significantly slower rate than the same configuration without a solar-power source. The study of the configuration of solar system and the battery consumption had been through this project.
