Modules

compute_motor_weight(motor)

Calculate the weight of motor using NASA correlations

compute_rotor_weight(rotor, ...[, ...])

Calculates propeller blade pass for an eVTOL vehicle based on assumption of a NACA airfoil rotor, an assumed cm/cl, tip Mach limit, and structural geometry.

compute_wiring_weight(wing, config, cablePower)

Calculates mass of wiring required for a wing, including DC power cables and communication cables, assuming power cables run an average of half the fuselage length and height in addition to reaching the motor location on the wingspan, and that communication and sesor wires run an additional length based on the fuselage and wing dimensions.
