The elaboration of this dissertation aims at the construction of an Unmanned VTOL(Vertical Take-off and Landing) Aerial Vehicle by using batteries and solar cells. The use of solar cells aims to increase flight time and also its autonomy in relation to flight time using only batteries. At the same time there will be the possibility of payload with the aim of attaching various sensors for specific purposes such us the measurement of pollutants in the atmosphere, as well as the possibility of automatic flight using GPS. For this purpose, the elaboration will be done on an existing model of aircraft with radical modifications in the wing and the electronic parts. In order to achieve all this, prototype design 3D printing of components will be done.
