Electric propulsion offers significant advantages over the present gasoline engine propulsion system on a remotely piloted vehicle (RPV). The advantages are the result of technical advances in batteries, power transistors, permanent magnets and control methods. This program is a continuation of an exploratory development effort by the Air Force in electric propulsion for the RPV. This report presents the parametric data from a trade study of nine motor/control designs. The relationship between cost, weight and efficiency of the motor/control system is determined so that the entire RPV propulsion system can be optimized. An additional motor/control design is presented which considers a high voltage source and high speed propeller. (Author)
