Abstract

Modern unmanned aircraft complexes are widely used in agriculture and allow you to make decisions to eliminate or localize problems such as cost optimization of fertilizers and pesticides, prediction crop yields, planning of logistics solutions, improving the class of grain, etc. Also the agricultural drone are used for spreading – trichogramma. Trichogramma is a biological material - biological plant protection mean, and accordingly it’s - an environment friendly. The trichogramma protects a large number of cultures from various species of pests. Kiev LLC "ABRIS" with the participation of students of “Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute” design and develop an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) "FLIRT Iron" for release of a trichogramma Designed UAV is equipped with release electromechanical devise and modern navigation equipment, which allows to accurately and evenly spread the trichogram over the entire treated area. The application rate of the entomological mean - trichogram is 3 g / ha. This leads to the fact that the use of manned aircraft technology becomes inefficient due to the fact that the necessary spread of active substance is extremely small values. The existing approach with using of manned aviation can not provide low costs spreading. Also the usage of light and ultra light manned aircraft is not appropriate due to low speed and altitude of the flight. Moreover the manned flight in extremally dangerous conditions (low altitude and speed) demands significant high professional pilot skills. Therefore it is more efficient to use UAV’s for such kinds of aviation applications. The maintenance group of the FLIRT Iron UAV consists of three members and can process up to 1000 ha per day. To provide the proportional spreading of trihogramma the UAV also is equipped with special aeronautical software for flight mission planning. The application rate of trichogramma is about 50-120 thousand wasps per one hectare, it corresponds to a volume of 3-7 cm3. The team of our design bureau has developed and manufactured a device that can be used with any type of existing UAV for spreading trichogram in fully automatic mode. The characteristics and design process of UAV complex is described in full version of the article.
