Abstract
Disclosed herein are unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Some UAVs include a vertically-mounted printed circuit board (PCB). The UAVs have yaw, pitch, and roll axes. The UAVs comprise a plurality of propellers, each of the plurality of propellers configured to rotate about a respective one of a plurality of axes of rotation; a base assembly coupled to each of the plurality of propellers; and a PCB coupled to the base assembly. A surface of the PCB lies in a plane defined by the yaw axis and the roll axis, and no portion of the PCB intersects any axis of rotation of any propeller of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The PCB may have a non-rectangular shape, such as the shape of a shark. Some UAVs include a PCB comprising a mechanical feature configured to engage with a peripheral or a peripheral subassembly.
