Project Abstract
CHIRP, or Coaxial Hovering Indoor Reconnaissance probe, is a senior design
project at the University of Colorado for the 2003-2004 school year.
The goal of
the project is to develop a stable, hovering UAV controllable in
altitude and the yaw axis on a test stand.
To accomplish this the following systems will be developed:
- Lightweight airframe and mechanical system supporting
coaxial, counter-rotating blades
-
Avionics system with flight-control sensors
-
Computer control system providing augmented stability.
