| 20080300740 | GPS autopilot system - The GPS (Global Positioning System) Autopilot System utilizes approximately fourteen (14) to twenty-four (24) microprocessors, depending on the size of the aircraft. These microprocessors computer control fuel and airspeed, ailerons, elevators, rudder and breaking automatically by following pre-programmed GPS fixes stored in the aircraft's onboard GPS database, and making the required mechanical system adjustments so that the real-time GPS fixes become the virtual GPS fixes when the aircraft moves. The GPS database is programmed during an identical flight plan, flown by an experienced pilot. During this flight, GPS coordinates and UTC time is recorded and stored in GPS database. All the stored GPS coordinates or fixes can be used or a portion of the flight fixes can be used, such as just the approach and landing sequence of GPS fixes. Once the chosen data is determined, the onboard database computer will control the aircraft's airspeed, yaw, pitch, roll and breaking to insure the aircraft passes through the GPS fixes that were recorded during the programming flight. The GPS Autopilot System accomplishes this by sighting the pre-programmed GPS fixes that are twelve (12) to thirty (30) seconds ahead of the aircraft's real-time GPS fix, and aiming or guiding the aircraft toward and through the programmed virtual GPS fixes. | 12-04-2008 |
| 20110022250 | Helicopter autopilot - The Helicopter Autopilot operates by recording GPS (Global Positioning System) and/or accellerometer coordinates on CD-ROM during a programming flight or maneuver. To autopilot this flight plan, the received GPS coordinates that show the pilot's real-time position, will be compared with the programmed GPS coordinates that represent the magnetic course high-lighted on the dashboard GPS terrain map display screen. The flight controls are computor adjusted until the helicopter is aligned with this pre-recorded magnetic course shown on the GPS display screen. The altitude, latitude, longitude and velocity are matched to these timed programmed coordinates. The automatic flight controls of the cyclic (main rotor tilt), the collective pitch (main rotor blades angle of attack), the anti-torque pedals (tail rotor blades angle of attack), and the throttle (engine power and RPM), which will change the yaw, pitch, roll and airspeed to again fly the helicopter through this pre-recorded GPS coordinate sequence. | 01-27-2011 |
