Abstract
In today’s world, it is very much required to a country’s military to be technically advanced. The most famous technology in military field is the use of drones or, in other words, QUADCOPTERS. Therefore, I intend to aid in improving this technology by creating an all-terrain rover quadcopter which can fly and can move also on any type of surfaces (including special case for water), which is required by military forces. It will work on normal principle of quadcopter, and the added feature to it is its wheel and streamlined and aerodynamic central body. It is so designed that in most of the cases, the propellers will not be harmed. Military can use it to pick up any small object from it (say up to dia. of 5 cm) with average payload capacity. It is of grass color so it can move in bushes creating a camouflage effect without being observed.
