Corti Creare
Test of the hover controller, in particular in yaw direction (multicopter frame, i.e. roll direction in airplane frame). The yaw is stabilized using the flaperons which are in the propeller wash. The flaperon deflections are visible when Chris pokes the kite with the broom. The controller quickly reacts and stabilizes smoothly the yaw angle back to zero. Note that differential propeller directions as used for small multicopter-drones do not offer nearly enough yaw moment for control authority of the kite's inertia or expected wind loads. In addition, such a control scheme greatly reduces the thrust for yaw stabilization. This is why this is not feasible for our system.

A hundred miles out, he fixed on Bermuda, sure that land meant safety. But closing a reef-strewn coast in big seas is harder than the open water behind you, and no one's coming out in eighty knots. With sea room, you turn and run with the storm. 📗 Get My Book: https://bethecaptain.com
