Greetings!
Recently started a project designing my own sport aircraft. Its actually a scaled up version of my aerospace engineering senior design project. It was basically a 6' long UAV powered but an AMT turbojet and incorporated thrust vectoring. Obviously the cost of turbojets/fans are somewhat prohibitive so I doubt I'll be able to use them on my design. As such I'm looking to use a push-prop configuration at this time.
General design goals are as follows:
Vcruise: 200 KIAS
Vne: 250 KIAS
Vstall: <75 KIAS
G-Loading: +7/-3 Operationally (+10.5/-4.5 Design)
Fully Aerobatic
Carry 2 People in Tandem
Max R/C: >2500 fpm
Range: >600nm
Be able to T/O and Land in less than 3000 ft
I've attached 2 photos of my senior design project as well as a preliminary model of the aircraft I hope to build. Anyways, I look forward to hearing peoples' input as the design process continues.
