REGENERATIVE HIGH LIFT MAGNETIC CLUTCH AND BRAKE GENERATOR FOR ELECTRIC AIRCRAFT

Abstract: an electric aircraft includes system for operating the aircraft. the electric aircraft includes a wing having a first control surface, a second control surface, a battery and a gearbox mechanically coupled to the first control surface. the first control surface is operated, and a voltage is induced from mechanical energy generated during a deceleration of the first control surface that occurs while operating the first control surface, wherein an airflow across the first control surface causes the deceleration. the induced voltage can be stored at the battery or used to operate the second control surface using the induced voltage.
