This invention belongs to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology, specifically relating to a method for positioning the deployment axis of a foldable UAV wing surface. The method includes the following steps: S1, designing the aerodynamic shape of the deployed state according to the UAV's
cruise conditions, and designing the
dihedral angle and mounting angle of the wing surface according to maneuverability and stability; S2, designing the position of the wing surface in the folded state according to structural design requirements; S3, calculating the spatial orientation of a fixed rotation axis from the folded position to the deployed position, achieving the required
dihedral angle and mounting angle of the wing or V-
tail with a single rotation around the fixed axis from the folded position. This invention has the advantages that when the wing surface is folded, it fits tightly against the
fuselage surface; when the wing surface is deployed, only one
rotation around a fixed axis is needed to achieve the required
dihedral angle and mounting angle for aerodynamic design.
