In this paper the design of an efficient option for collecting meteorological data has been proposed. Emphasis is given on the design of the delta wing glider to accommodate the electronics inside the fuselage and also the aerodynamic stability of the glider. The delta wing glider is a non-propeller driven subsonic airplane with two wings, two elevons, a rudder and fuselage fold enabling the safety and proper functioning of the electronic sensors. The fully deployed wingspan is 320 millimeters. All the electronic sensors are powered by a battery which is also integrated with the circuit inside the fuselage. The operational scenario of the glider is described, including the deployment procedure and various environmental conditions while testing. The main purpose of this project is to provide a cost-effective option for the collection of various local meteorological data. Keywords: delta; glider; meteorology; sensors; GPS; anemometer; 1. Introduction Climatology and Weather Forecasting is important since it helps determine future climate expectations. Due to the harsh conditions of weather at different geological locations, different types of instruments are needed but they always are not reliable. They are very sensitive, difficult to operate and we cannot always expect an accurate result. Hence small gliders can be used as a much more reliable approach to collect local meteorological data. The World Meteorological Organization’s (WMO) Aircraft Meteorological Data Relay (AMDAR) Panel was established in 1998 for a worldwide application of the inherent observing capability of aircraft. Since the beginning of flight, weather observations taken from aircraft have made an important contribution towards understanding the current state of the atmosphere so that better weather forecasts can be made [1]. Commercially this suffers from aplenty of downfalls; such aircraft observations are costly and requires high maintenance. Many companies and cities in the world like United Kingdom, Chicago and London are already searching for a new and reliable piece of equipment for data collection [2]. This small glider can be used in daily lives for data collection and with different DESIGN AND TESTING OF A DELTA WING GLIDER AT LOW ALTITUDES Vinayak H.
