In particular, the effects of freestream on propeller’s performance are investigated. We introduce some of the applications of the proposed model in modeling multi-rotor UAVs which helps to increase stability or maneuverability of the vehicle. In the end, simulation results for thrust force and moments of an example propeller in presence of a uniform freestream are presented.enThe copyright for the paper content remains with the author.ComponentPropellerAerodynamicsThrust forceUnmanned aerial vehiclesFreestreamMechatronicsRobots and ControlArticle
