Corsica is a common project from ISAE - SUPAERO and ENAC. The challenge is to develop a mini-electric UAV able to fly over the Mediterranean sea from Nice to Corsica (distance : 180km).
Trip
We will take off around Nice and land at Calvi. The distance to fly is about 180km.
Specifications
- Span: 1.5 m
- Wing area: 0.21 m2
- Weight: 2 kg
- Cruise speed: 15 m/s = 54km/h
- Batteries: 3 lipo-cells, 21Ah
- Range: 250km
Performances
Corsica should be capable to fly more than 250km at its designed conditions. Only the batteries have been tested and are not as good as expected.
News
The manufacturing is in process and the first plane should be ready by the end of January. The first flight is scheduled at the end of February.
Planning
First manufactured plane in early February
First flight in late February
Second manufactured plane in late Mars
Third manufactured plane in late April
Trip to Corsica in late May
Communication
We will use an onboard GSM transceiver who will send to a ground station the position, battery voltage, speed ... each minute. We hope the GSM network will work in the middle of the sea
