    Abstract: A disclosed flying craft (100) includes a suspension structure (110) having a first end and a second end, a lift unit (150), and a payload unit (190). The lift unit includes a nacelle (128) and a tailboom (140), and pivotally couples to the first end of the suspension structure, and a payload unit couples to the structure's second end. Thus the tailboom can pivotally couple with respect to the payload unit, which advantageously permits the tailboom to assume an orientation desirable for a particular mode of flight. During vertical flight or hover, the tailboom can hang from the lift unit in an orientation that is substantially parallel to the suspension structure and that minimizes resistance to downwash from the lift unit. During horizontal flight, the tailboom can be orthogonal to the suspension structure, extending rearward in an orientation where it can develop pitching and yawing moments to control and stabilize horizontal flight. Advantageous variations and methods are also disclosed.

    Abstract translation: 公开的飞行器(100)包括具有第一端和第二端的悬挂结构(110),升降单元(150)和有效载荷单元(190)。 提升单元包括机舱(128)和尾杆(140),并且枢转地联接到悬挂结构的第一端,并且有效载荷单元耦合到结构的第二端。 因此,尾巴可以相对于有效载荷单元枢转地联接,这有利地允许尾巴呈现对于特定飞行方式所需的取向。 在垂直飞行或悬停期间,尾巴可以以与悬挂结构基本平行的方向从提升单元悬挂,并且使得抵抗来自提升单元的降洗的阻力最小化。 在水平飞行期间,尾翼可以与悬架结构正交,向后延伸,在该方向上可以产生俯仰和偏转力矩以控制和稳定水平飞行。 还公开了有利的变型和方法。

    Abstract: The modular aircraft system includes a single fuselage having a permanently installed empennage and plural sets of wing modules and engine modules, with each wing and engine module optimized for different flight conditions and missions. The fuselage and each of the modules are configured for rapid removal and installation of the modules to minimize downtime for the aircraft. Short wings having relatively low aspect ratio are provided for relatively high speed flight when great endurance and/or weight carrying capacity are not of great concern. Long wings having high aspect ratio are provided for longer range and endurance flights where speed is not absolutely vital. A medium span wing module is also provided. Turboprop, single turbojet, and dual turbojet engine modules are provided for installation depending upon mission requirements for any given flight. The aircraft is primarily adapted for use as an autonomously operated or remotely operated unmanned aerial vehicle.

    Abstract: An in-flight battery recharging system for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). This invention converts byproducts of a multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle's conventional propulsion system operation and airframe movements to generate electricity that, in turn, is used to power the propulsion system's electric motors, power onboard electronic components, and recharge the battery that initially powers the propulsion system's electric motors. Having this ability of recharging the battery in-flight gives an unmanned aerial vehicle a much improved flight time and range, thereby greatly increasing its utility.
