Abstract Drone is an aircraft, which is specially designed without the aid of pilots. Drones are used in many areas such as surveillance, military and agricultural applications. The conventionally used drone aircrafts have been analyzed and some drawbacks have been found out in taking off as it requires long take off distance. This work aims to design an effective magnus wing rotor for a drone aircraft and to implement the same in the surveillance industry and in reconnaissance so as to make sure that the current indifference in applying the magnus wing rotor is eliminated by the effective functioning of the UMV Rotor. This refurbished design will increase the reliability of the magnus wing UMVs and it will equalize the commercial value with the other type of drone vehicles. The lift force generated by the fixed aircraft and the quadcopter is very less when compared to the magnus wing UMVs with the similar wingspan and fuselage geometry. The wingspan is greatly reduced by the magnus wing application and it can carry greater payload with tremendous lift force generation. The main objective of the proposed work is to redesign the rotor with the axially fixed spiral spokes which theoretically increases the vortex strength of the UMVs thereby increasing the lift of the cylinder as per the analytical calculation and the analysis of the particular drone design. The magnus wing rotor has a drawback as it suffers an abrupt lifting failure when there is any power cut off. The span discs attached at the ends will reduce the jeopardy by acting like a flywheel as a temporary energy storage mechanism and thereby giving an option for the application in the relevant industries.
