The Predator UAV has the following characteristics: has the following characteristics: wingspan = 14.85 m, wing area = 11.45 m2, maximum weight = 1020 kgf, and fuel weight = 295 kgf. The power plant is a Rotax four-cylinder, four-stroke engine of 85 horsepower driving a two-blade, variable-pitch pusher propeller. Assume that the Oswald efficiency factor is 0.7, the zero-lift drag coefficient is 0.03, the propeller efficiency is 0.9, and the specific fuel consumption is 0.2 kgf of fuel per horsepower per hour. Calculate the following:
1: Maximum velocity at sea level.
2: The maximum range
3: The maximum endurance
