Abstract: A method for passive aerial cord release mechanisms and an aerial cord release mechanism for an aerial vehicle (AV). A method includes determining a retracting force to be applied to a winch of an aerial vehicle (AV), wherein the determined retracting force is a force required to retract a cord to be coiled around the winch within the AV, and the cord is temporarily coupled to the winch, such that an external force exceeding a predetermined threshold causes decoupling between the cord and the winch.

Abstract: A self-release mechanism. The self-release mechanism includes a counter-weight, wherein the counter-weight is located on a first end of the self-release mechanism; a shaft having a top portion and a bottom portion, wherein the top portion of the shaft is coupled to the counter-weight, wherein the shaft defines a perforation, wherein the perforation is adapted to receive a cord; and a hook including a hook bend, wherein the hook is located on a second end of the self-release mechanism, wherein the hook is coupled to the bottom portion of the shaft, wherein the self-release mechanism moves to a first position when a tension is exerted on the self-release mechanism due to gravity caused by coupling of the hook to a payload via the hook bend, wherein the self-release mechanism moves to a second position when the exerted tension is released.
