METHOD OF REMOTE CONTROL OF FLIGHT ALTITUDE OF RADIO-CONTROLLED AEROPLANE MODEL AND DEVICE FOR REALIZATION OF THIS METHOD Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC G05B19/00 G05D1/04 

FIELD: control of unmanned flying vehicles.

SUBSTANCE: proposed method includes delivery of control signal from panel for deviation of flying vehicle altitude controls in accordance with preset trajectory of flight, in-flight measurement, calculation of present vertical component of flying vehicle speed and sign of its change in accordance with measurement, comparison of actual measured altitude with preset magnitude; in case actual altitude is lesser than preset magnitude, control signal is corrected for compensation of deviation of altitude from preset magnitude with the aid of feedback signal of actual magnitude of altitude and present magnitude of vertical component of speed. Device proposed for realization of this method is provided with altitude sensor and microprocessor forming the correction signal for control signal.

EFFECT: avoidance of dangerous approach to earth surface.
