An aeronautical vehicle that rights itself from an inverted state to an upright state has a self-righting frame assembly has a protrusion extending upwardly from a central vertical axis. The protrusion provides an initial instability to begin a self-righting process when the aeronautical vehicle is inverted on a surface. A propulsion system, such as rotor driven by a motor can be mounted in a central void of the self-righting frame assembly and oriented to provide a lifting force. A power supply is mounted in the central void of the self-righting frame assembly and operationally connected to the at least one rotor for rotatably powering the rotor. An electronics assembly is also mounted in the central void of the self-righting frame for receiving remote control commands and is communicatively interconnected to the power supply for remotely controlling the aeronautical vehicle to take off, to fly, and to land on a surface.

The present invention provides a new system that allows an easier operation of a moving object. The present invention provides a moving object operation system including: a moving object; and an operation signal transmitter. The moving object includes a signal receipt unit that receives an operation signal. The transmitter includes: an auxiliary tool; a storage unit that contains conversion information; a movement information acquisition unit that acquires auxiliary tool movement information; a conversion unit that converts the acquired movement information into the operation signal based on the conversion information; and a signal transmission unit that transmits the operation signal. The conversion information includes auxiliary tool movement information and operation signal information for instructing the moving object in how to move, and those are associated with each other. The movement information associated with human motion is auxiliary tool movement information associated with human motion imagining movement of the moving object.

The present invention relates to the field of remote control technologies, and provides a remote control, including: a body, a first rocker device, a processor, and a signal transmission device. A first joystick component of the first rocker device may move in parallel relative to the body. The processor is connected to the first rocker device, and when the first joystick component moves in parallel relative to the body, the processor generates a remote control instruction, where the remote control instruction is used to control a movable object to move in a horizontal plane of the movable object. The signal transmission device is connected to the processor, and used to receive the remote control instruction generated by the processor, and send the remote control instruction to the movable object. In the remote control of the present invention, when the first joystick component moves in parallel relative to the body, the processor generates a remote control instruction, where the remote control instruction is used to control the movable object to move in a horizontal plane of the movable object, and the parallel moving direction of the first joystick component may be set to correspond to the moving direction of the movable object in the horizontal plane of the movable object, so that the operation of the remote control is intuitive and simple.

A remote control includes a body, a first rocker device, a second rocker device, a processor, and a signal transmission device. The first rocker device and the second rocker device are installed on the body. The processor connects to the first rocker device, the second rocker device, and the signal transmission device. The first rocker device includes a joystick component. The second rocker device includes a second joystick component. When the first joystick component moves in parallel relative to the body, the processor generates a remote control instruction used to control a movable object to move in a horizontal plane. When the second joystick component moves straightly relative to the body along a first direction or a second direction, the processor generates a remote control instruction used to control the movable object to move upward or move downward in a vertical direction of the movable object.
