- Multirotor being one of the most emerging technology is being researched on all over the world for its limitless applications. Development from military to civilized usage is being done on many types of multirotor. Our focus is to study, design and develop a quadcopter with the help of CAD and CAE tools in order to produce a design concept and a prototype and simulate the condition of quadcopter in various condition. The process is started by doing an approximation of the quadcopter weight. The approximate weight is then used to determine what type of main components will be selected, such as motors, propellers, and other electrical components. Selection of material is done with consideration of weight, strength, and cost. After a conceptual design and materials are gathered, a prototype is made to test the performance of the quadcopter. The prototype made focused more on functionality of the quadcopter with the consideration of further studies and development.
