  • Patent number: 9437101
    Abstract: A system for the wireless control of an RC model, comprising a transmitting device separate from the RC model, a multifunctional device in the RC model, and a receiver model in the RC model. The transmitting device comprises a first transmitter for transmitting information via digital radio communication to the RC model, and a second receiver adapted to receive second information via digital radio communication from the RC model. The multifunctional device comprises or is connected to one or more electronic accessory modules. The receiver module is connected to or integrated with the multifunctional device, and comprises a first receiver configured to receive the first information and a second transmitter configured to transmit the second information. A method for using the system, a transmitting device suitable for use with the system, and a receiving device suitable for use with the system are also claimed.

  • Patent number: 9056259
    Abstract: A control system for a remote-controlled device comprising at least one receiver configured to receive a plurality of control channel signals and an operational control unit. The operational control unit comprises at least one receiver input connected to the receiver via a high speed digital link. The input is configured to receive a sequence of digital packets of information from the receiver. This input may contain information relating to the plurality of control channels including at least one user input signal. The operational control unit also includes a sensor input for receiving signals from a sensor located on the device. The operational control unit includes a processor capable of processing the data. The operational control unit will include at least one output for transmitting an output signal to a mechanism for controlling operation of the device. This device may be specifically designed to work with remote-controlled helicopters.
