Investigation of Empennage Location Effect to the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Structure Characteristic

Over the past few decades, unmanned aerial vehicles, commonly known as UAVs, have been widely used in a number of consumer and military applications, such as surveillance, tracking, monitoring, and aerial photography. Fixed-wing and rotary UAVs are the two primary categories in UAV. Interestingly, t...
