Engineering

CAD & Simulation Make it virtually before building it. Math & Physics The purest of sciences go here. Power Transmission conductive tethers, tethers for winching systems, rope-drives, rotating shafts, and more Energy Storage Blade design The torque, the rps, the airfoils… Manufacturing Making it a reality! Electronics Zapp. Soldering. PCBs… all that stuff… Generators & Gearing Go get that power! Electrifying! Ground station Design of ground stations. See also the “Power Transmission”,“Generators & Gearing” and “Electronics” categories for subsystems of ground stations. Crosswind Kites / Planes The kites that go wooooooooosh, wooooooooooooosh, wooooooooooosh. (Please someone write decent category descriptions!) Lifters / Pilot kites Get the Lift! Lifting things. That boulder just outside of geostat orbit goes here. Flight Control As if anything was under control. System Design Looking at the structure of whole systems.
