    Unmanned air vehicles (UAV) have been used for many years and it mainly focus on military purposes. Numerous UAV development have been popular worldwide because the low in development cost, operating cost and ability to provide accurate surveillance information and it is a better option for performing reconnaissance missions in hostile environment. However, in the past years a new type of UAV has appeared that possessed lighter weight and smaller in size and it is categorized as a micro unmanned air vehicle (μ-UAV). Although the non-autonomous ready-to-fly tailless μ-UAV exists among local universities, the development of non-autonomous ready-to-fly tailless μ-UAV is still open to be explored. Thus, this project demonstrates the development of the non-autonomous ready-to-fly tailless μ-UAV named as Neo-Ptero. A special CNC hot wire cutter machine was used in the Neo-Ptero fuselage and wing development in which has evidently produced high accuracy of shapes and geometry based on the CAD design. A 3D printing process was used to produce few parts in the Neo-Ptero μ-UAV model. The model was equipped with on shelves RC components for future flight testing purpose. The actual Neo-Ptero weigh around 1.3kg and has a wingspan of 120.6cm.
