Engineering


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