Innovative Dodecacopter Design – Bulgarian Knight

Abstract

Verbatim from Embry-Riddle Scholarly Commons. Not paraphrased, not summarized.

The current article aims at introducing a novel dodecacopter multirotor design called Bulgarian Knight. The aircraft implements a number of innovations and characteristics that give it an advantage over other contemporary multi-copters. Some of its novel characteristics are the mounting of the rotors under the fuselage by use of pusher propellers. Further, the design implements twelve rotors positioned in an optimal geometric coverage.
