Scientific novelty

Equipping an unmanned aerial vehicle (quadcopter) with a shock-absorbing protective frame to ensure the safety of flight equipment from external contact during test flights during development or when performing work at industrial and civil facilities.

Advantages

The unmanned aerial vehicle can operate in confined spaces and perform specified functions; the unmanned aerial vehicle ensures the safety of flight equipment during the development stage when debugging its new hardware and software components; economic efficiency is achieved by increasing the survivability of the unmanned aerial vehicle.

Commercial implementation

At industrial enterprises for performing various types of work, for example, inspections, ensuring the protection of vehicles upon contact with objects or in the event of a fall; at vehicle development enterprises during their improvement with protection in case of emergency situations.
