Investigation of the Influence of Unmanned Aircraft Takeoff Mass on its In-flight Safety

Abstract

Provision of the in-flight safety for unmanned aircraft vehicles (UAV) brings down the danger of injures for people and material losses in the case of the air-crash involving an unmanned aerial vehicle falling to the ground. One of the important factors ensuring decrease of the catastrophe risk is provision of the strength of UAV carrying structures which may be achieved with decrease of its takeoff mass value.
