    摘要: An aircraft (10) has a plurality of motors (14) mounted on its wing (12), the wing being configured to produce a dihedral during flight, wherein the dihedral causes at least one of the motors (14) to produce thrust above the center of drag (202) and at least one motor (14) to produce thrust below the center of drag (202), such that control of the relative thrusts can control the pitch of the aircraft (10).

    摘要: This disclosure provides a communications system using a span-loaded flying wing, traveling at relatively slow speeds, that can remain airborne for long periods of time. The communications system uses the airplane as a long term high altitude platform that can serve at least one of a number of potential functions. One function is to link to a ground station using radio wave signals and a satellite using optical signals. Another function is to serve as a relay station between ground communication nodes and individual end-users. Because the aircraft can tightly hold a station, the end-user's antennas do not need to be continuously adjustable. For such a system, a large number of aircraft can be used, with the end-user antennas being configured for a narrow beamwidth so as to allow frequency reuse for different communication links.
