The key aim of this paper is to design a lightweight compact UAV for high endurance-loiter in the Martian atmosphere. On the basis of the mission requirements, the design process will be initiated. A constraint analysis diagram will be plotted to identify the design variables, the further appropriate initial weight will be selected to initialize the iterative design calculations.
