Abstract

The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the use of MATLAB and Simulink SimScape functions and toolboxes to model and evaluate key properties of an engineering system. In this case, it was a parcel delivery drone. The drone is assembled from four electric motors, propellers, a battery, four structural-bearing arms, and a body that holds the package. The mathematical model of the quadcopter is partitioned based on its subsystems such as sensors, flight dynamics, 3D animation, environment, etc. As science pushes the use of sustainable electronics further and further, the model includes a simplified model of battery performance. The battery capacity for each motor was 7600 mAh, while the 3D printing material had a density of 1400 kg/m^3. The weight of the drone (including batteries and motors) was 2,538 grams carrying a 1 kg package (effective weight ratio). The actuators provided a total maximum thrust of 107 newtons with overall drone dimensions of 48 x 48 x 12 cm. The trajectory was designed to replicate delivery from two locations within a 50 x 50-meter reference plane.
