A remote control device for a remotely controlled device including; a first input controller, including a grippable body which a user is able to apply a force and torque thereto with a first hand in order to be able to control yaw, pitch, roll and elevation of a remotely controlled vehicle; a second input controller enabling a user to control, with a second hand, a peripheral device associated with remotely controlled device; a communication device; and a controller, configured to: receive one or more first input and one or more second input signals from the first input controller and the second input controller respectively; and control the communication device for transmitting: a first output signal indicative of a first command based on the force and torque applied to the grippable body; and a second output signal indicative of a second command for controlling the peripheral device.

A quadrotor UAV including ruggedized, integral-battery, load-bearing body, two arms on the load-bearing body, each arm having two rotors, a control module mounted on the load-bearing body, a payload module mounted on the control module, and skids configured as landing gear. The two arms are replaceable with arms having wheels for ground vehicle use, with arms having floats and props for water-surface use, and with arms having pitch-controlled props for underwater use. The control module is configured to operate as an unmanned aerial vehicle, an unmanned ground vehicle, an unmanned (water) surface vehicle, and an unmanned underwater vehicle, depending on the type of arms that are attached.

The present invention discloses a boomerang, which comprises a flight component, a central shaft and a protective device, wherein the flight component comprises at least one rotating device and a driving device; The center of the shaft runs through the center axis of the maximum diameter plane formed when the rotating device rotates, and the protective device is composed of a plurality of ribs connected with each other and arranged around the flight component. The boomerang is safer in use, better in flying performance, more ornamental and playable.

There is provided a control device including an image display unit configured to acquire, from a flying body, an image captured by an imaging device provided in the flying body and to display the image, and a flight instruction generation unit configured to generate a flight instruction for the flying body based on content of an operation performed with respect to the image captured by the imaging device and displayed by the image display unit.

A multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes a central body including an outer surface and an inner surface, a plurality of branch members connected to the central body, each branch member configured to support a corresponding actuator assembly, one or more receiving structures positioned on the outer surface of the central body and configured to receive one or more electrical components, the one or more electrical components comprising at least a battery of the UAV, and an indicator light disposed at an opening or a window on one of the plurality of branch members, wherein the opening or the window is made of a transparent or semi-transparent material.

There is provided a control device including an image display unit configured to acquire, from a flying body, an image captured by an imaging device provided in the flying body and to display the image, and a flight instruction generation unit configured to generate a flight instruction for the flying body based on content of an operation performed with respect to the image captured by the imaging device and displayed by the image display unit.

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.

An aircraft includes: a plurality of rotor units each including a propeller and a motor that drives the propeller; a balloon that laterally covers the plurality of rotor units, across the height of the plurality of rotor units in the up-and-down direction; a camera that protrudes, along a predetermined axis, beyond the balloon; and a holding component that holds the camera and whose overall length can be shortened along the predetermined axis.

Among other things, a game includes individual game pieces and an airborne vehicle (having a motor, a battery connected to the motor, a propulsion device connected to the motor, and a game piece support). A controller is configured to activate the motor when a first period of time has passed after one of the individual game pieces has been received at the game piece support and to deactivate the motor when a second period of time has passed after the motor has been activated.

An archery arrow end includes a main body that has a first end and a second end. The main body defines a longitudinal axis. The archery arrow end includes a tip positioned at the first end. The tip has a blunt end. The archery arrow end includes an arrow shaft connector positioned at the second end. The arrow shaft connector is configured to be attached to an arrow shaft. The archery arrow end includes flexible wings that extend from the main body in a direction at least partially toward the second end. Each wing has a free end configured to move toward and away from the longitudinal axis.
