What are the materials used in UAV?
The composites most used for manufacturing the structure of UAVs (fuselage, wing, landing gear) are: polymers reinforced with carbon fibers (CFRP), polymers reinforced with fiberglass (GFRP), boron and aramid fibers. A composite material is literally any material that consists of two or more materials. This includes items such as concrete, plywood, and even 6,000-year-old Egyptian mud-straw bricks. This discussion will focus on advanced composite materials, which are typically strong fiber reinforcement placed in resin.Composite materials examples Plastics reinforced with glass fibre or other fibres.
