Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/002517
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A turbine powered personal flight system configured as a jet pack, includes a frame having an aerodynamic shell. At least two turbine powered engines are positioned on opposite sides of the frame. The jet pack is further configured such that an individual pilot can place the jet pack on the back. Positioned within the shell are fuel cells, fuel pumps, and valves for energizing the engines. Further control elements including at least one ECU and a gyroscope are further positioned therein. A vectored nozzle thrust system or movable engines control direction of flight. A hand operated controller allows the pilot to provide control signals such as throttle and attitude. An integrated flight helmet further provides a heads up display of flight information. The personal flight system is further configured so as to allow a vertical take off from rest, hover, turn on axis, sustained flight, and controlled vertical landing.
