Abstract
A system and method for pilot assists of an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft. The system generally includes a pilot control and a flight controller. The pilot control is attached to the eVTOL aircraft. The pilot control is configured to transmit an input relating to the flight path of the aircraft. The flight controller is communicatively connected to the pilot control. The flight controller is configured to receive the input relating to the flight path, generate an output of a recommended flight maneuver as a function of the input, and display the recommended flight maneuver.
Claims20
A system for pilot assistance in an electric aircraft, the system comprising:
- a pilot control attached to the aircraft, wherein the pilot control is operated by a voice command and configured to
- transmit an input to a flight controller;
- and
- a flight controller communicatively connected to the pilot control, wherein the flight controller is configured to:
- receive the input from the pilot control;
- generate an output of a recommended maneuver as a function of the input;
- and
- transmit the output of the recommended maneuver to a remote device,
- wherein the flight controller includes circuitry attached to the electric aircraft and a remote element in communication with the electric aircraft.
A method for pilot assists of an electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, the method comprising:
- transmitting, at a pilot control operated by a voice command, an input to the flight controller;
- communicatively connecting a flight controller to the pilot control;
- receiving, at the flight controller, input from the pilot control;
- generating, at the flight controller, an output of a recommended maneuver as a function of the input;
- and
- transmitting, at the flight controller, the output of the recommended maneuver to a remote device,
- wherein the flight controller includes an circuitry attached to the electric aircraft and a remote element in communication with the electric aircraft.
