This airfoil was used for the modeling of baseline mono-plane UAV and box-wing UAV to compare the aerodynamic characteristics using computational fluid dynamics methods. The results show that box-wing UAVs had a 9.43% higher lift-to-drag than mono-plane UAVs at a cruising speed of 17.5 m/s and an angle of attack of 0°. As the results, the installation of tilt motor has been proposed for the further proceeding in the preliminary design phase.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Engineering, RMUTT}, author={Sutthison, Danupol and Wongkamchang, Prasatporn and Sukuprakarn, Nukul}, year={2022}, month={Jun.}, pages={49–60} }
