Summary

Having come to the end of this chapter, we have learned about unmanned systems, their development over time, and their requirements. We moved to UAVs and studied their types, important systems and subsystems, and their functionalities.

In the next chapter of this book, we will cover the dynamics of drones, various forces that act on the system when it’s in the air, and how to make it safe and balanced. We will also go through various aerodynamic terminologies that will help us to understand things better and look at how we use engineering with the aforementioned components to achieve those forces and build a whole flyable system.
