Abstract: Quadcopters are one of the most versatile unmanned aerial vehicles deployed for various purposes. In this study it is going to be used as part of a system used for bird control therefore the structural integrity is investigated. The aim of the paper is to investigate the structural and aerodynamic behaviour of a quadcopter intended for bird control. A model of the drone has been developed in SolidWorks, then structural along with flow analysis carried out using ANSYS software. The structural analysis reveals a maximum stress of 39.13 MPa of the arm due to thrust and 2.6 MPa on the frame due to load which are within the safe range for use of purpose.
