MAVSTAR (Coaxial MAV) with CCD Camera
Loading...
Uploaded by maklinchi on Mar 31, 2008
Outdoor flight test for MAVSTAR final version with a CCD camera and a 1.2GHz 0.5W transmitter, which can transmit video signal over 1km range in LoS. The MAVSTAR is a coaxial helicopter driven by a pair of powerful brushless motors, a 4 cell LiPo Battery and *custom-made carbon fiber blades* (probably the first coaxial helicopter within 30cm sphere in the world uses carbon fiber blades). It carries an AVR MPU, an ultrasonic range finder, an IMU, a GPS, a compass, a wireless camera and a XBee, able to communicate with a base station and UGVs over 1km. The current payload and flight time are more than 425g and 12-14mins respectively. It is designed for indoor and outdoor search and tracking missions by CMR@UNSW. It won "the best UGV performance" in the first US-Asian Demonstration and Assessment of Micro Aerial and Unmanned Ground Vehicle Technologies(MAV08) in India. Website: cmr.mech.unsw.edu.au/mavstar

Very cool guys! I wish I could construct something like that. What ccd camera are you using? and what motors are you running?
-
We got the carbon fiber plates from one research organisation and cut them in another university.
Our latest MAV can fly more than 17 mins.

is it really only 22 grams.... thats bloody light
-

We use 4-cell 1320 or 2000 mAh LiPo battery and achieve up to 17 mins.

cool those Lipos sound expensive
how many amps is it pulling? 17 mins isnt long... but I guess thats pretty standard for RC helicopters

The 1320 mAh batytery costs less than USD100.
Actually 17 mins is long for this small helicopter. There is no other commercially available helicopter with this size, lift force and flight time.
