Topic: Radio Controlling Kited Wings
- When passive control is not enough for a purpose ...
- Distinguish between un-kited kite-like powered flight of wings.
- Aim for achieving purposes: entertaining recreational stunt
flying is one purpose found in the literature. Fetch-and-place of
things is another purpose. Driving the wings for crosswind flying for
fly-gen AWES is another purpose. Controlling a kited wing for driving
ground-based electric generation is another purpose. Etc.
- Compare RC with wired control. A compound tether having a communications wire?
- The whole sector of RC model aircraft may feed technology
for RC of kited wings. The whole sector RC drones may feed the present
topic.
- Compare ground-based RC of kited wings with on-board programmed RC using feedback from on-board sensors.
