Drones
Single-Rotor Helicopter
Function: With a single main rotor helicopter, the creation of torque as the engine turns the rotor creates a torque effect that causes the body of the helicopter to turn in the opposite direction of the rotor.
Design: 
What it is: Single main rotor helicopters are the most common type of helicopter They need an anti-torque device (tail rotor or other anti-torque system) to counteract the twisting momentum produced by the main rotor, which is powered by one or more engine(s).
Wings: With a single main rotor helicopter, the creation of torque as the engine turns the rotor creates a torque effect that causes the body of the helicopter to turn in the opposite direction of the rotor. The rotor would be 54 ft. at 258 rpm (maximum engine power). But the blades could be shortened to 40 ft., allowing the helicopter to fly through urban areas or land in tight quarters.

Fixed Wing Hybrid
A Fixed Wing Hybrid combines the benefits of multi-rotor platforms with fixed-wing drones. It has the ability to transition between these two modes during flight. It can also take off and land, without the need for a launcher or runway. This means that the drone can be operated from any location. - Marli

A Multi-Rotor drone is a UAV (unarmed aerial vehicle) that uses more than two rotors with fixed-pitch spinning blades that generate lift. By changing the speed of the rotors so that the thrust generated is greater than equal to or less than the forces of gravity and drag acting on the aircraft the drone can be made to ascend, hover or descend. - Marli

DEFINITION: a flying robot that can be remotely controlled or fly autonomously through software-controlled flight plans in their embedded systems. -Marli
