摘要: A robotic or remotely controlled flying platform (10) with reduced drag stabilizing control apparatus constructed having an air duct (12) intake (14) on the top and exhaust (16) at bottom, containing supported therein a clockwise rotating fan (22) counter-clockwise (24). Directly below perimeter of are mounted plurality trough shaped deflection assemblies (32) each including rotatably adjustable half (44) for selectively scooping portion drive air, stationary adjacent (36) receiving scooped redirecting it outward upward from duct. centrally positioned plate (112) has rods (106), pivotably connected between (74) corresponding lever associated troughs so as to couple in out steam according position (74), thereby providing over pitch roll platform. The is driven by first second motors responding input signals. signals also direct yaw independent speed counter resulting rotation direction accordingly.
