Abstract:
In example embodiments described herein, techniques are described for launching flying structures such as a plank wings or a gliders, canards, or any other flying structures. In some example embodiments, a rotational arrangement facilitates such launches. In operation, a rotational arrangement couples with the flying structure and is configured to allow a user to impart rotational movement to the flying structure. In imparting the rotational movement, the rotational mechanism allows an automatic variation of a radius of the associated radius of curvature.
