tions of the GLMAV in the transient phase, one position in which
the detailed observation is made, the location of the platform recovery, and the ground station. The latter is composed of a laptop for the GLMAV control and another one for the video display.

Figure 1 (right) shows the GLMAV in
projectile and operational modes. The
ballistic launcher having a caliber of
80 mm has a mass lower than 10 kg
with accessories. The final platform in
the MAV configuration has an upper
rotor diameter of 0.35 m, a lower one
of 0.25 m, and a mass of 1.05 kg.
Two operational scenarios were
considered: the machine starts observing 100 m above the treatment area located 100 m or 500 m from the launch
site. The flight of the GLMAV can be,
therefore, split into three phases:

C the classical ballistic flight of a projectile up to around its apogee;
C

the transient phase of the transformation of the projectile
into a MAV with its slowdown up to the hovering flight;
