UAV platform
Aircraft platform is used for UAV to carry payload to targets areas and it is able to detect and monitor. It consists of a body part, power equipment, flying control system, navigation system and electric equipment.
It adopts the structure with upper single-wings and two-tails brace with four motors, reversed V-shaped tail and backward pushing engine. It can achieve vertical take-off and cruising through four motors that pass power to propellers, and it can also achieve vertical landing through fixed wings flying mode.It is able to obtain high life-drag ratio to realize aerodynamic efficiency,longer endurance time and faster flying speed if flying with this mode.
Quadrotor lift system is consists of lithium batteries, electronic speed controllers, electromotors and propellers.Lithium batteries output power that provides voltage to speed controller which can access to flight controlling system. DC connector switch is controlled by flight controlling system. Then, voltage is inputted into electromotors that drive propellers to work, which helps UAV to achieve vertical take-off.
It adopts 3W70 oil-driven engine to produce horizontal thrust. This engine is specially designed for aircraft with high power-to-weight ratio and stability, it can dissipate heat very well during its operation. With its electric starting system, the UAV can achieve dual function,not only to start the engine, but also can generate electricity after the engine starts to charge rotor wings. In addition, gasoline 3w70 and heavy oil share the same interface, it enable to change easily

Ground controlling devise
The ground controlling devise consists of controlling software for ground and payload. It can read data of aircraft and payload through the connection with ground terminal. With this feature, it can make instructions, monitor flight, obtain payload information and images in real time, and draw flying routes.
Ground station
Images and information processing station
The images and information processing subsystem consists of hardware and software.
Features
● Measuring
It can measure length, area and angles of targets. Length, area, and angle accuracy rate is within 10%, 20% and 5° respectively.
● Cannon shooting calibration
It can set missile landing coordinate by hitting it, and automatically save coordinate data for next combat, which replaces measuring work by human.
● Damage assessment
According to objects in images(such as airport, bridges and vessels) it can obtain damage information to assess damage level.
● Video comparison
It can make automatic video comparison between two videos that shooting under different time but same flying routes, which can obtain information of the change of latitude and longitude where the targets located.
● Video targets detection
It can help to get latitude, longitude and type information of targets that you are interested in.
Remote control
It can be operated by professional drone drivers to deal with emergency situation during its take-off and landing.By sending radio signal to ground terminal system, drivers can remote control within a certain distance.
Support equipment
The support equipment includes a transport box(the aircraft and the detection devise transport box and the devise transport box for tasks ),the battery devise box, the maintaining devise box with tools,the portable charger and the portable fueling devise. It can achieve storage, transportation,carrying, charging and maintaining of UAV. Ground controlling vehicle can also be an option for users.
Transport Box
The transport box includes a aircraft transport box，two detection devise transport box，a devise transport box for tasks and a battery transport box, etc. It is a specialized aircraft box, dimension is 1.5m×0.7m×0.6m. The body is made of black synthetic material with aluminium alloy at four edges which makes it hard and durable.There are handles on the surface of the box and a clapboard to fix UAV. Batteries for aircraft and ground are placed in the battery box with black ABS plastic materials and sponge that can provide protection and warm for batteries.
A Portable Charger
Portable charger integrates a transformer, a charger and a automatic control module into a carrying case. With its automatic controlling ability, it can control charging voltage and current to prevent overcharging or overheating. In addition, with its balanced charge ability and the function to cut off circuit when it comes to short circuit, it can charge for aerial vehicle even in the wild.
Portable fueling tank
It can fuel UAV up with specific volume. With its high precision flowing sensor, users can set the amount of fuel. The fueling system was set in a suitcase that includes oil pump, solenoid valve, flowing sensor, control unit and operation panel.
When it is in use, please connect fuel-input port with fuel barrel and fuel-out port with a fuel tank of aircraft. Residual fuel can be drained out after fueling. In the fueling process, fuel would not expose into air that ensures safety.
Other tools
The UAV is designed for people to use easily,specialized devises or tools are no need for maintenance.it is able for users use common tools and materials to maintain or fix.
