Actuated weight shift control aircraft

Romaeris公司正在开发远程货运无人机，为加拿大**和世界其他国家的偏远、孤立社区提供服务。无人机设计的基础是利用重量转移控制的柔性翼无尾超轻型飞机。在这种类型的飞机上，整个机翼作为一个控制面，在一个连接着悬挂在下面的飞机其余部分的关节上左右倾斜或向前或向后倾斜。为了保持结构强度，机翼下方的水平控制杆用固体管刚性地附着在机翼上，整个布置是机翼结构完整性的一部分。这种结构是为载人飞行设计的，对货物运输造成了严重的空间限制。该提案是对驱动重量转移控制系统进行有价值的原始研究，以便在人类飞行员被移除并被全自动系统和有效载荷取代时提高控制杆以打开货物空间。

Romaeris Corporation is developing long-range cargo drones to serve remote, isolated communities in Canada**and other countries worldwide. The basis for the drone design is flex-wing, tailless ultra-light aircraft that**utilize weight-shift control. In this type of aircraft, the entire wing acts a control surface and is tilted**side-to-side or pitched forward or rearward on a joint that connects to the rest of the aircraft hanging below. To**maintain structural strength, the horizontal control bar below the wing is rigidly attached to the wing with solid**tubing and the whole arrangement is part of the structural integrity of the wing. The structure is designed for**piloted flight and poses severe space limitation for cargo transport. The proposal is to conduct valuable original**research on actuated weight shift control systems to raise the control bar to open space for cargo when the**human pilot is removed and replaced with fully automated systems and payload.
