ABSTRACT: The wing, one of
the most important parts of aircraft, always requires sophis-ticated design to
increase lift, reduce drag and weight. For modern fixed-wing UAV, extending
cruising time is always a requirement for the overall design. Designing a most
light wing that can match the requirements of work condi-tions is desired. In
this work, according to the work conditions, we compare several types of wing
and chose beam-type wing. Then we made the detailed design and optimization to
reduce the weight of wing. At last, we draw the 3D model for potential
realistic production.
