This paper presents a test development of a Fly-By-Wireless flight control system for a fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Fly-By-Wireless system (FBWLS) refers to a system that uses a wireless network instead of a wired network to connect sensors and actuators with a flight control computer (FCC), reducing considerable amount of wires. FBWLS enables to design a much lighter aircraft along with decreased maintenance time and cost. In this research we developed a Zigbee-based FWBLS UAV in which sensors (GPS and AHRS) are wirelessly connected via a FCC to aileron and elevator servo motors. In order to see the effect of time delay due to wireless signal on the flight stability of the UAV, several flight tests were conducted. From the tests, it was confirmed that the effect is minor by comparing the flight response of the FBWLS with the corresponding Fly-By-Wire system.

The power tools is the product using working power generated by electric motor. Many companies are manufacturing numerous devices. Main features of tools are included various assembled products, small, light and solid and durable enough to match several standards. Fundamental requirements for the product is excellent performance and convenience for use. The quality of them depends on the equipped motor'(s) capability, accuracy of gear and endurance against worn-out. By adapting the state-of-the-art parts, they could be used in the place from home to heavy industry broadly. They can be classified electronic drills, grinders, saws and sanders families for the household appliances. For industrial tools, bore drill, grinder, polisher, and driver drill are classified as special and high priced group. This study presents the strategy of power tool development of BOSCH, BLACK&DECKER and KEYANG. Their products were analyzed in terms of product line and product mix concept. Then they are examined by design elements, such as color, shape and material for housing. As an analysis method, the image scale parameter and criteria were applied to each company's product.
