Abstract: A low visibility aid device includes a main body having a front end, a back end, a middle section and an interior space. A mounting bracket extends outward from the main body for securing the device onto a manned aircraft for use during flight. A sensor suite is positioned within the main body to capture flight data information including audiovisual information, altitude information, attitude information and heading information of the aircraft during flight. A control unit having a wireless communication unit is positioned within the main body and selectively transmits the flight data information to a user device. A power generation unit generates power for use by the system components during device operation.

Abstract: A wireless autopilot system includes a mounting plate for securement onto a flight control surface of an aircraft, an airfoil, and a flight control device. The flight control device is connected to the mounting plate, and an elongated bracket functions as an anti-flutter counterbalance. A servomotor is connected to the airfoil by the elongated bracket, and a controller having a wireless transceiver for communicating with an application on an externally located processor enabled device is located within the main body. Changes in the position of the servomotor during flight are instructed by the application, and result in a change to the orientation of the aircraft.

Abstract: A wireless autopilot system includes an aircraft attachment device having a mounting plate for securement onto a flight control surface of an aircraft, and a flight control device that is hingedly connected to the aircraft attachment device. The flight control device including an airfoil that is connected to the mounting plate, and a steering tab that is connected to the trailing edge of the airfoil. A main body extends outward from the airfoil to function as an anti-flutter counterbalance. A servomotor is connected to the steering tab by an elongated rigid rod, and a controller having a wireless transceiver for communicating with an application on an externally located processor enabled device. Changes in the position of the servomotor during flight are instructed by the application, and result in a change to the orientation of the aircraft.

Abstract: Portable communication device and method for mitigating interference. One example portable communication device includes a frequency-modulated (FM) communication subsystem, a cellular communication subsystem, a first electronic processor, and a second electronic processor. The FM communication subsystem includes an FM modem and at least one FM antenna. The cellular communication subsystem includes a plurality of cellular antennas, a plurality of antenna tuners, and a cellular modem. The first electronic processor is configured to generate an alert signal responsive to detecting one of an audio signal reception by the FM communication subsystem and an audio signal transmission by the FM communication subsystem. The second electronic processor is configured to receive the alert signal from the first electronic processor. The second electronic processor is also configured to responsively cause the cellular communication subsystem to set substantially constant impedances for the plurality of cellular antennas.

Abstract: A device for independently capturing flight information and transmitting an ADS-B signal includes an aerodynamically-shaped main body having a mounting unit for being secured onto an exterior portion of an aircraft. A sensor suite is positioned within the main body to capture flight data information. An ADS-B datalink is in communication with the sensor suite for transmitting the captured flight data information, and a control unit is positioned within the main body to control an operation of the sensor suite and datalink.

Abstract: An independently operable flight data capture and transmission device includes an aerodynamically efficient main body having a mounting bracket for securing the device onto the wings, fuselage or strut of an aircraft during flight. A sensor suite is positioned within the main body to independently capture flight data information pertaining to the flight characteristics, statistics, metrics, performance and environment of the aircraft during flight. A control unit is positioned within the main body to selectively control an operation of the sensor suite, store the flight data information within a memory and communicate with a user device. A mobile application displays the flight data information and communicates operating instructions to the device, and a power generation unit generates power for use by the system components during flight.
