The article discusses the process of developing and modeling an impeller for an unmanned aircraft of the airplane type. Aerodynamic and strength calculations were carried out, key design parameters were determined, including the number of blades, engine power and choice of material. The developed models were created in the CAD system Compass 3D and manufactured by 3D printing using PETG plastic. Impeller thrust tests were carried out depending on engine speed, which allowed the design to be optimized for maximum efficiency.
