Seed Dropping UAV: Design of Seed Dropping UAV in Afforestation

Abstract: In the modern world UAV is the most developing technology around the world. In our research, we are going to fix a seed ball sowing system inside the fuselage of the Fixed wing UAV. We are going fly the plane over the forest areas and drop the seed ball in the lower dense forest areas. We have constructed a regular fixed wing UAV with the basic calculations. The plane is initially tested manually to calculate the payload carrying capacity, durability and covering range of the plane. From the obtaining results we are going to design a seed ball sowing system with appropriate flight conditions, and it will be fixed at the point of center of gravity of the fixed wing UAV. In this report we explain how the seed ball sowing system is designed and how is going to work.
