Abstract
Though they are unnecessary for the structural integrity of the aircraft, an error in the pitot-static system can cause inaccuracies in flight and eventually lead to aircraft failure. Through a series of tests, the University of Minnesota’s UAV pitot-static system error was calculated and graphed. This allows the pressure sensors built into the pitot-static system to be calibrated for error, which prevents harm to the aircraft and operators.
