ZEPHIRA
COMPETITION DRONE FOR acc 2024
The drone features a V-tail configuration and an innovative landing gear equipped with airless wheels, entirely made of carbon fiber and fiberglass to ensure both lightness and strength. The aircraft was designed to be fully dismountable and easily transportable, a key feature in a competitive context.
With an empty mass of only 3 kg, Zephira can carry a maximum payload of 3.06 kg, demonstrating an excellent balance between structural efficiency and payload capacity.
kowalsky
COMPETITION DRONE FOR acc 2021
The drone features an Inverted V-tail configuration and a rear-mounted pushing propeller, a solution that distinguishes it from other models. Entirely built in carbon fiber, it combines lightness and structural strength, ensuring high performance in competition.
Kowalsky integrates winglets to reduce induced drag and includes a large front cargo bay, making it practical and versatile. Powered by a LiPo 3S 4000 mAh battery, the aircraft can carry a maximum payload of 2.3 kg, maintaining an optimal balance between aerodynamic efficiency and payload capacity.
mARCOPLANO
COMPETITION DRONE FOR acc 2019
The drone features a V-tail configuration and a tail-dragger landing gear, with a fuselage made of CFR composite material and a wing structure in wood reinforced with carbon fiber. Designed to combine robustness and efficiency, it can carry a maximum payload of 6 kg, loaded in just 13.3 seconds.
The aircraft is fully dismountable and transportable inside a container measuring 75 × 50 × 25 cm, in compliance with competition regulations. Its red and white livery recalls the colors of the university: red represents academic identity, while white was chosen to help maintain lower internal fuselage temperatures during the summer months.
The name Marcoplano is a tribute to the main designers of its subsystems: Marco Tamiazzo (fuselage), Marco Carraro(tailplane), and Marco Panizzo (wing).
TULLIO
The Prototype From Which All Our Design Experience Originated In 2019
It is a fully modular and adjustable aircraft, created to study and optimize different configurations and aeronautical solutions that would later be adopted and further developed with Marcoplano. Thanks to this experimental platform, the team was able to test materials, geometries, and construction methodologies, laying the foundations for future competition successes.
The name Tullio is a tribute to the mathematician from Padua, Tullio Levi-Civita, a key figure in the scientific community.
