Abstract: It is a major problem in UAVs to have a better stability in gusty winds and obtaining uniform thrust depend on the various directional and Aerobatic operations. Hence, we have fabricated an X4 model Drone with the existing propeller blade profiles of standard size. Its performance was measured and stability criteria specified by varying the pitch shows that the span parameters of the propeller and the stability can be improved. We designed a propeller and mounted in the fabricated Drone for the real time measurements of the stability.The stability of the Drone was increased by varying the propeller design. The analysis of the propeller blade was performed in Open FOAM platform with the maximum of 10000rpm.
