Deneb Aero Documentation

Deneb Aero computes the aerodynamics of an unmanned aircraft from its CAD model and turns the result into a flight model that you can fly in a simulator. You upload a STEP or STL file, describe how the aircraft flies, and choose what to compute. Deneb Aero meshes the aircraft, solves each attitude with OpenFOAM on your own computer, and presents lift, drag, stability, performance and the flow around the aircraft. With a full flight model, the aircraft can be flown in the browser with ArduPilot in the loop, or exported as a Gazebo package.

This documentation describes how to install Deneb Aero, how to run an analysis, how to read its results and how to fly the aircraft. It applies to Deneb Aero 0.1.14.
