Abstract

With the development of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems for a multitude of real-time applications, 3D printing technologies have been developed to make thermoplastic structures by fusing filament Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) or Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF). However, we consider that the realization of new technologies of experimental models / technological demonstrators / prototypes becomes profitable by using 3D printing technologies. The main aim of the paper is to highlight how the use of three types of materials, which are processed differently, influences the Von Mises stresses of the payload used for a UAV, with the mission of photographing and filming from high altitude.
