“…The first use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) was defense systems, but nowadays it has become widespread for civilian purposes. Today, drones are used for entertainment and media [1], search and rescue missions [2], surveillance [3], mapping [4], agriculture [5], traffic monitoring [6] and disaster management [7]. Today, UAVs used for civilian purposes are often called as drones.…”

The risk of accidents while operating a drone is quite high. The most important solution is training for drone pilots. Drone pilot training can be done in both physical and virtual environments, but the probability of an accident is higher for pilot trainees, so the first method is to train in a virtual environment. The purpose of this study is to develop a new system to collect data on students' educational development performance of students during the use of Gamified Drone Training Simulator and objectively analyze students' development. A multimodal recording system that can collect simulator, keystroke, and brain activity data has been developed to analyze the cognitive and physical activities of participants trained in the gamified drone simulator. It was found that as the number of trials increased, participants became accustomed to the cognitive load of visual/auditory tasks and therefore the power in the alpha and beta bands decreased. It was observed that participants' meditation and attention scores increased with the number of repetitions of the educational game. It can be concluded that the number of repetitions lowers stress and anxiety levels, increases attention, and thus enhances game performance.

“…Air Mobility (UAM) [1] generalized to Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) anticipates highly maneuverable aircraft with Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) capability plus wing-based aerodynamic lift for efficient forward flight [2]. Early AAM vehicle concepts featured multicopter configurations [3,4] as multicopter designs are VTOL capable, offer excellent maneuverability, and are well studied for Uncrewed Aircraft System (UAS) applications [5][6][7]. Multicopter optimization has been studied [8], but range is limited by battery energy density and inefficiency in forward flight.…”

Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) vehicles will open new opportunities in aviation. This paper describes the design and wind tunnel analysis of an eVTOL uncrewed aircraft system (UAS) prototype with a traditional aircraft wing, tail, and puller motor along with four vertical thrust pusher motors. Vehicle design and construction are summarized. Dynamic thrust from propulsion modules is experimentally determined at different airspeeds over a large sweep of propeller angles of attack. Wind tunnel tests with the vehicle prototype cover a suite of hover, transition and cruise flight conditions. Net aerodynamic forces and moments are distinctly computed and compared for plane, quadrotor and hybrid flight modes. Coefficient-based models are developed. Polynomial curve fits accurately capture observed data over all test configurations. To our knowledge, the presented wind tunnel experimental analysis for a multi-mode eVTOL platform is novel. Increased drag and reduced dynamic thrust likely due to flow interactions will be important to address in future designs.
