    Abstract: A system and method that reduces the descent velocity of an aerial vehicle, the system including a control system, an inflation device, and a deployable, inflatable cage. The control system detects a descent condition, such as an uncontrolled descent and activates the inflation device to inflate the cage to at least partially encase the aerial vehicle and protect the vehicle during descent and landing. The inflatable cage includes a main fill tube, a perimeter tube, and support tubes. The support tubes are connected between the main fill tube and the perimeter tube, and enable gas to flow from the inflation device through the support and perimeter tubes and into the perimeter tube. A drag inducing material enclosure is connected to the inflatable cage and structured to induce drag to reduce a descent speed of the aerial vehicle.

    Abstract: A multicopter (100) having a plurality of propellers (1) is configured to be electrically operated. The multicopter (100) is provided with electric motors (2), at least one main battery (3), a generator (4), an engine (5), and a battery condition detecting section (71). The electric motors (2) drive the propellers (1). The main battery (3) is a first electric power source that supplies the electric power to the electric motors (2). The generator (4) is a second electric power source that supplies the electric power to the electric motors (2). The engine (5) drives the generator (4). The battery condition detecting section (71) detects abnormality of the main battery (3). When the battery condition detecting section (71) detects the abnormality of the main battery (3), the generator (4) supplies the electric power that has been converted from motive power from the engine (5) directly to the electric motors (2).
