APPARATUS FOR GUIDING A TRANSITION BETWEEN FLIGHT MODES OF AN ELECTRIC AIRCRAFT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18144659 titled 'APPARATUS FOR GUIDING A TRANSITION BETWEEN FLIGHT MODES OF AN ELECTRIC AIRCRAFT
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an apparatus for guiding the transition between flight modes of an electric aircraft.
- The apparatus includes a sensor that detects the movement of the aircraft.
- A flight controller is connected to the sensor and receives the movement data.
- The flight controller determines the current flight mode based on the movement data.
- It generates a guidance data based on the change in flight mode and the movement data.
- The movement data and guidance data are communicated to a pilot indicator.
- The pilot indicator displays the movement data and guidance data to the pilot.
Original Abstract Submitted
An apparatus for guiding a transition between flight modes of an electric aircraft is illustrated. The apparatus comprises at least a sensor configured to detect a movement datum of the electric aircraft and a flight controller communicatively connected to the at least sensor, wherein the flight controller is configured to receive the movement datum from the at least a sensor, determine a current flight mode of the electric aircraft as a function of the movement datum, generate a guidance datum as a function of a change in flight mode and the movement datum, communicate the movement datum and the guidance datum to a pilot indicator in communication with the flight controller, and display the movement datum and the guidance datum using the pilot indicator.
