Design and development of modular autonomous flying vehicle

In recent years, Vertical Take-off and Landing vehicles (VTOL) have gained popularity among researchers due to their capabilities of vertical stationary flight and maneuverability. As the consequences, many beneficial and unique applications of this type of vehicle can be found for both military and...
