Abstract: A handheld device and method for entering data and controlling functions of an aerial vehicle are disclosed. The handheld device includes an interface that communicates with a processor and a memory of the aerial vehicle; input devices that receive input from an operator of the handheld device, a display device that displays information related to the input received from the operator via the input devices, and one or more processors. The one or more processors can receive input data from the input devices to modify a field value maintained in the memory of the aerial vehicle. The one or more processors can present, at the display device, an output data corresponding to the input data, and periodically transmit one or more signals to modify the field value maintained in the memory of the aerial vehicle via the interface based on the input data.

Abstract: A power display of an aircraft having a main rotor system and a translational thrust includes a reference member, a first indicator arranged adjacent the reference member and operable to display a power being used by the main rotor system, and a second indicator arranged adjacent the reference member and operable to display a power being used by the translational thrust system.

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to systems and methods for collision avoidance of aerial vehicles. More particularly, the disclosure is directed to systems and methods for avoiding collisions between manned aerial vehicles and unmanned aerial vehicles. The unmanned aerial vehicle includes a low power RF beacon which transmits signals over a predefined frequency monitored by manned aerial vehicles.
