Tricopter Based Aerial Transport Maintaining Organ ViabilityThrough Controlled Flight and Temperature

Abstract

Emergency organ transportation
demands rapid, reliable, and thermally controlled
delivery systems to preserve organ viability.
Conventional logistics and existing unmanned aerial
vehicle studies are limited by traffic dependency,
simulation-only validation, lack of active cooling, and
insufficient emergency handling under real-flight
conditions. A tricopter-based aerial system integrating
precision flight control, a medical payload container, and
thermoelectric cooling is presented to address these
limitations. The system employs PID-based stabilization,
real-time sensor monitoring, and a Peltier module to
maintain container temperature during flight.
Experimental evaluation demonstrates stable operation
with nominal battery voltage of 11.1 V, hover current
draw of 4.5 A, maximum motor speed of 8500 RPM, and
attitude response times below 0.2 s. Orientation deviation
remains within ±2 degrees, achieving a maximum flight
duration of 12 minutes. Compared to prior simulationcentric
or vision-only studies, the results confirm
improved real-world stability, payload safety, and
emergency readiness. Overall findings validate the
feasibility of tricopter-based emergency organ transport
for short-range medical missions.
