Single Rotor Vertical Take-off and Landing system is selected due to complexity and enthralling factor. Aim of the project is to design an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle which can take off and land vertically with using single propeller in order to provide thrust. Challenge involved in the system is single rotating propeller which is main contributing element to provide lift is making the whole system unstable due to torque of power system. In case of conventional helicopter tail rotor is provided to balance the torque provided by main rotor power system again multi rotors have even number ofrotating propellers which rotates in such fashion cancels the net moment about body. Though there are challenges due to unconventional design, there are certain advantages such as Symmetry of Body in all axis, shape of UAV is spherical thus it can roll through obstacles, delegate parts are enclosed in frame ensuring safety of the system. The main feature of this project is an indigenous design of a flight computer and Ground station.
