Abstract
In recent times, Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have demonstrated a significant potential as mean of concept validation in aerospace domain, an essential step before proceed with real scale testing. The Center for Aerospace Research (CfAR), specialized in production of Flight Test Demonstrators, recently has focused most of its efforts on the Blended Wing Body (BWB) scaled models on behalf of Bombardier. This new planes configuration consists of an hybrid shape with unique features able to match benefits from both flying wing and traditional aircrafts, making it a worthwhile object of study in the last few years. A first prototype made by CfAR is the 7% scale model (FTV7%) which is already under flight testing, while the other, the 16.5% model (FTV16.5%), is not ready to fly yet.
Since an aeroplane is a combination of numerous systems and subsystems that interact with each other, these need to be tested and validated in order to get the predicted results
