Autonomy is no longer science fiction. Advanced flight control systems that augment pilot decisions with artificial intelligence and machine learning are moving into mainstream avionics. These systems ...

Uncrewed aircraft combine remote control, onboard computing, navigation and sensors to fly without a pilot physically aboard.

Volocopter has patented a method for controlling aircraft, specifically VTOL multirotor aircraft, using a dual-channel system. The system ensures control commands from a pilot input are suitable for ...

Fault-tolerant control systems are engineered to detect, accommodate and compensate for component failures or sensor faults in real time, thereby preserving safe flight performance. Such systems ...

Horizon will use BETA's hardware and software for its Cavorite X7 aircraft BETA, picked earlier this year alongside Archer and Joby for a U.S. pilot program to speed air taxi deployment Partnership ...

Horizon Aircraft selected BETA Technologies' fly-by-wire flight control system for the Cavorite X7 as the hybrid-electric VTOL advances toward certification. BETA Technologies provides the fly-by-wire ...
