L. Pan, Shanghai Aircraft Design and Research Institute, China

The aerodynamic design, structure design and flight test of a low Reynolds number BWB UAV demonstrator, which is blended wing body, dorsal inlet and exhaust, V-type tail and 6 control surfaces, are presented in this paper. The flight test results prove that the BWB configuration is feasible, the analysis is reliable, and the design is successful.
