A UAV-carried surveillance and remote sensing platform is launched from a high altitude and flies over a target area, collecting remote sensing imagery before returning to earth. The UAV may be towed to a desired altitude by a powered aircraft or a balloon and then launched for cruising over a target area while capturing data. Instead of being piloted remotely, the UAV employs an autonomous flight control system.

The present disclosure provides an aircraft comprising: a fuselage; and a payload module coupled to the fuselage, the payload module comprising one or more data storage devices. The payload module is configured to be decoupled from the fuselage during flight upon receipt of a de-coupling input.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a parasail-assisted system for launching a fixed-wing aircraft into free flight and for retrieving a fixed-wing aircraft from free flight.

A parachute device for drone includes a container, a power source, a base, a parachute body and an open-assist member. A top of the container has an opening. The power source is disposed on a bottom of the container. The base is disposed on the power source. The parachute body, disposed on the base, is in a folded status. The open-assist member is disposed in the parachute body. The open-assist member contacts the base and the center of the inner surface of the parachute body.

The present disclosure presents various embodiments of a system for retrieving a fixed-wing aircraft from free flight using a flexible capture member. The system includes a GPS reference sensor and a communication link to guide the fixed-wing aircraft to intercept the flexible capture member.

To provide a flying object including a lift generating member deployment device that makes it easier than before to automatically avoid collision with an obstacle. A flying object 30 includes an obstacle detecting unit 5, a control unit 6, a battery 7, a storage unit 8 that stores information transmitted from the control unit 6, a transmitting/receiving unit 9 that receives an operation signal from a controller 40 and transmits information regarding the flying object 30 to the controller 40, and others. The obstacle detecting unit 5 is to detect the altitude of the flying object 30 and outputs an altitude detection signal, which represents the detected altitude information, to the control unit 6. In addition, upon detecting an obstacle present within a predetermined distance, the obstacle detecting unit 5 outputs an obstacle detection signal to the control unit 6, detects the distance between the flying object body 31 and the obstacle, and outputs a distance detection signal, which represents the detected distance information, to the control unit 6. The control unit 6 determines whether or not to actuate left and right brake cord pulling devices 10 in accordance with the signal received from the obstacle detecting unit 5.
