A method for controlling a flying projectile which rotates during flight, comprising: determining an angle of rotation of an inertial mass spinning about an axis during flight; and controlling at least one actuator for altering at least a portion of an aerodynamic structure, selectively in dependence on the determined angle of rotation and a control input, to control aerodynamic forces during flight. An aerodynamic surface may rotate and interact with surrounding air during flight, to produce aerodynamic forces. A sensor determines an angular rotation of the spin during flight. A control system, responsive to the sensor, produces a control signal in dependence on the determined angular rotation. An actuator selectively alters an aerodynamic characteristic of the aerodynamic surface in response to the control signal.

The oppositely-pulling hovering-flight machine uses two or two sets of aerostats or aircrafts that are respectively located in two airflows with opposite wind directions.

What is flight? How do insects, birds, and planes fly through air? People have known about the four forces of flight; lift, drag, weight, and thrust that enables flight for many years. One of the forces, weight, is the force of gravity acting in a downward direction toward of the Earth. Gravity is defined as the force by which a planet or other body draws objects toward its center. What causes objects to be drawn in? What is the source of attraction? It is because the Universe is a system of light waves. In a light wave system all matter is a light projection onto the bodies of rotating vortexes while mass is the level of light compression the vortexes produce. The apple, a small or negative vortex, is pulled down by the Earth, a larger or positive vortex, directly beneath it. Gravitation is the interaction between large, positive vortexes and small, negative vortexes created by the way in which matter is constructed. Since the cause of gravity is the interaction of positive and negative vortexes, anti gravitation has to be the equalization of theses vortexes. The following invention is a device predicated on the idea on how to equalize these vortexes and presents new ways for society to think of flight.

The present invention comprises a device designed to fly in planetary atmospheres via the photophoretic force. The photophoretic force may result from the phenomena of ΔT photophoresis, Δα photophoresis, and/or thermal creep flow. Certain embodiments of the structure may control flight by changing the direction of the net photophoretic force through structural elements that impart magnetic, electric, or gravitational torques on the entire structure. Payloads with many conceivable uses may be integrated into this invention. Examples of use include but are not limited to wireless data communications, optical devices, microelectronics, and remote sensing technologies.

A radial airfoil is an airfoil having a tip profile and a hub profile of an airfoil that were set apart at different angles of attack and joined by lofted top and bottom surfaces. The top surface is usually a convex surface, whereas the bottom surface is a slightly convex to substantially straight flat surface. The lift disc is a device including multiple radial airfoils that generate additional lift from the spent air from a VTOL (Vertical Take-off and Landing) machine, like a drone or helicopter. The lift disc can be used in several ways to assist the VTOL machines to generate lift. It can be used in a static mode where the lift disc is a non-moving element of the VTOL system. In a dynamic mode, the lift disc replaces the propeller and acts as a propeller to generate lift.
