Abstract
In order to further improve a control device for controlling unmanned and/or manned and/or virtual airborne objects in such a way that the control is easier to use and can be learned intuitively and more quickly even by untrained individuals, the control device has a first control element for controlling a movement about a vertical axis, a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis of the airborne object, a rotary movement and/or pivoting movement of the first control element about its vertical axis, its longitudinal axis and its transverse axis causing the airborne object to move about its vertical axis, longitudinal axis and transverse axis, and the control device also has a second control element for changing the flying altitude and/or a speed and/or a thrust of the airborne object.
Claims7
A control device for controlling an airborne object, comprising:
- a first control element configured to control movement of the airborne object about a vertical axis, a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis of the airborne object;
- and
- a second control element configured to control a change in one of a flight altitude, a speed, and a thrust of the airborne object,
- wherein the first control element is rotatable and/or pivotable about a vertical axis, a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis of the first control element to cause the movement of the airborne object about the vertical axis, the longitudinal axis and the transverse axis of the airborne object,
- wherein the vertical axis, longitudinal axis, and the transverse axis of the first control element run through a common point,
- wherein the control device includes two handles rigidly connected to the first control element, and
- wherein the two handles are arranged on a line parallel to the transverse axis of the first control element.
