SKNL PRz PR-5 Wiewior Plus

History

Polish students at Rzeszow University of Technology are working on the PRz PR-5 unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) for reconnaissance applications. The PR-5 is the latest development in a series of experimental drones that began with the PR-1 and evolved from its original form.

The PR-5 gained momentum in early 2006 and has been further developed since then. It is remotely controlled by a ground operator and recovered by parachute.

The PR-5 adopts a traditional aircraft layout with a centralized fuselage, monoplane and tail. The hull, which houses the necessary functional parts of the drone, has plate sides and a taper from the middle to the tail. The tail unit is arranged in a V-shaped tail unit, and the two rudder units are bent outwards.

The main wing aircraft is mounted high on the fuselage. Two electric motors provide the necessary drive for the two-bladed propellers located on the leading edge of each wing. Dimensions include a total length of 1.4 meters, a span of 2.14 meters, and a height of 0.3 meters.

The maximum take-off weight (MTOW) is 5.5 kg.

2 x AXI 2820/14 motors provide about 50 minutes of battery life.
