Abstract: An aeronautical apparatus is disclosed that has two pairs of wings. Each wing has a thrust-angle motor. A propeller and propeller motor are coupled to each thrust-angle motor. Propeller pitch is controlled by a propeller-pitch motor. The thrust-angle motor allows the propeller axis of rotation to be parallel to the fuselage's longitudinal axis; vertical (perpendicular to longitudinal axis, as in well-known fixed-position, four-propeller drones); and any position between as well as a given range exceeding these bounds which is used for control. An electronic control unit is electronically coupled to the thrust-angle motors, propeller motors, and propeller-pitch motors, which can be independently controlled, to provide the desired thrust and trajectory. Such an apparatus can provide efficient operation in vertical take-off/landing (hovering) and forward (translational) flight modes.

Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computing system program products for elimination of rounding error accumulation in iterative calculations for Big Data or streamed data. Embodiments of the invention include iteratively calculating a function for a primary computation window of a pre-defined size while incrementally calculating the function for one or more backup computation windows started at different time points and whenever one of the backup computation windows reaches a size of the pre-define size, swapping the primary computation window and the backup computation window. The result(s) of the function is/are always generated by the iterative calculation performed for the primary computation window. Elimination of rounding error accumulation enables a computing system to steadily and smoothly run iterative calculations for unlimited number of iterations without rounding error accumulation.
