GENERAL TThe autono

omous indu
ustrial unm
manned hellicopter Sco
out B1-100 has been developed
d
for professsional airborne appliccations succh as aeria
al mapping, airborne broadcastiing, search
h

well as law enforceme
ent.
HIGHLY EFFFICIENT CA
ARBON MAIN ROTOR B
BLADES The
e new carbo
on main rottor blades developed
d
by Aeroscout GmbH are highly efficient a s they are reducing the averagee power consumption
n
during the
e flight by minimum
m
10% compaared to the standard main
m
rotor b
blades. The
e decrease
e
of power cconsumptio
on is directly indicateed on the power/carb
buretor ind
dicator on the
t ground
d
control sta
ation.
SAFTEY Th
he state-off-the-art carbon main
n rotor blad
des are prroduced in dustrially with
w
latestt
carbon mu
ulti-cross-la
ayer techno
ology usingg autoclave fabrication
n. The staticc tensile sttrength hass
been veriffied by a fa
actor of thrree relativee to the nominal operration for thhe Scout B1-100

DESIGN Th
he highly efficient
e
carrbon main rotor blade
es have been designeed specifically for the
e
operation on the Sco
out B1-100 UAV helico
opter considering tak
ke-off weighht, main ro
otor speed,,
main rotorr diameter and physical operatiion modes of the Sco
out B1-100 UAV helico
opter while
e
optimizingg lift efficie
ency, aerod
dynamic d rag, and continuousn
c
ness of thee angle off attack. In
n
addition, tthese blade
es have sup
perior behaavior underr extreme maneuvers.
m
UPGRADIN
NG Due to the
t industrrial producttion processs the new carbon maain rotor bllades have
e
long-life e
endurance and
a can be
e used imm
mediately with
w the same main rrotor speed
d controllerr
settings. FFurthermore, only small mechan
nical modiffications are required
d when mo
ounting the
e
new carbo
on rotor blades.
DEMONSTTRATION System demo
onstrations are availab
