Currently, the difficulty of delivering packages, goods in transportation is a very concerning issue in both urban and suburban areas when traffic congestion is increasing significantly. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to design an unmanned aerial vehicle using quadrotor to transport goods such as food, home appliances or drugs, and blood to customers. This paper presents the sizing algorithm applying blade element momentum theory to determine necessary specifications for the electric propulsion system of multicopters. These results are then used to design the appropriate configuration that can handle the mission profile. Finally, analyzing and evaluating structural strength and failure of the designed delivery drone by applying the Tsai-Wu criterion.
