Engineering


Energy Storage Math & Physics The purest of sciences go here. CAD & Simulation Make it virtually before building it. Power Transmission conductive tethers, tethers for winching systems, rope-drives, rotating shafts, and more Blade design The torque, the rps, the airfoils… 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. Electronics Zapp. Soldering. PCBs… all that stuff… Crosswind Kites / Planes The kites that go wooooooooosh, wooooooooooooosh, wooooooooooosh. (Please someone write decent category descriptions!) Manufacturing Making it a reality! 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.
