Engineering

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