Abstract: An unmanned system maneuver controller (USMC) includes an inertial navigation system (INS) for state estimation of the USMC in three-dimensional (3D) space, a communications device configured to communicate with an unmanned system, and a processor configured to receive, via the communications device, flight, maneuver, or dive data from the unmanned system, and generate flight, maneuver, or dive control instructions based at least on the flight, maneuver, or dive data and data received from the INS. The flight, maneuver, or dive control instructions are configured to pilot the unmanned system based on movement of the USMC in 3D space. A remote may selectively control an operation of the USMC. The USMC may be mounted to a weapon or observation device, such that movement of the weapon or observation device in 3D space controls a movement of the unmanned system. Additional systems and associated methods are also provided.

Abstract: Systems and methods for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and control are provided. A UAV may include a swashplateless and hinged propulsion system, and a rotating payload system including an ISR device, a wind sensor, explosive charge and an atmospherics and/or CBRN sensor. A UAV flight controller may include a motion, compass, visual and gyroscopic (MCVG) or other gravitational forces sensor, a communications module configured to communicate with a UAV, and a flight module. The flight module may be configured to receive flight data from the UAV and generate flight control instructions based at least on the flight data and data received from the MCVG sensor. The flight control instructions may be operable to pilot the UAV based on movement of the UAV flight controller in 3D space.
