Chapter 634: The aerobatic maneuvers of the model airplane

Zheng Xudong and Wang Tao of DJI Technology ate and chatted at the dining table of Shangri-La's business suite, and the more they talked, the more speculative they became, Zheng Xudong told Wang Tao that there are three bottlenecks restricting the development of drones, one is new materials, and the other is battery technology. The more Wang Tao listened, the more interested he became, he put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked, "What is the third technique?"

"Drone intelligent remote control technology, that is, AI!" Zheng Xudong took a sip of the drink on the table.

"AI, Anton, you mean artificial intelligence remote control?" Wang Tao couldn't believe his ears, he was engaged in science and technology, of course, he would pay attention to the latest scientific and technological development in the world at any time, artificial intelligence can be said to be the hottest topic in the world at present. Some even say that whoever masters artificial intelligence in the 21st century will control the world.

"That's right, I'm talking about artificial intelligence remote control. Zheng Xudong looked at Wang Tao and said lightly.

"No way, there is no mature artificial intelligence in the world now, it is still in the laboratory stage, and it is not even a primary intelligence. I don't believe that anyone has come up with artificial intelligence now. No way, you must be joking, right?" Wang Tao said with a hint of contempt in his eyes, he felt that it might be a mistake to come to see this star at noon today, it was purely a blind delay, and it was better to hurry back to do research if he had this time! Thinking of this, Wang Tao took a napkin and wiped his mouth, and stood up suddenly, "Mr. Anton, I'm sorry, I still have urgent matters to rush back to Shenzhen in the afternoon, thank you for your hospitality at noon, I have the opportunity to go to Shenzhen, I have a treat!"

Zheng Xudong guessed that Wang Tao would say this, but he didn't stand up, so he sat down at the dining table and picked up a piece of Dongpo meat with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, and said lightly: "Brother Wang, I dare to guarantee that you will regret it for the rest of your life if you leave here now!"

Wang Tao heard Zheng Xudong say this, thought about it and sat down again, and said coldly: "What else do you want to say?"

Zheng Xudong smiled and said, "I'll delay you for another five minutes, I think you won't be in a hurry for five minutes." If you're not satisfied, I'll take you to the airport myself. After speaking, Zheng Xudong took out the phone and said into the phone: "Bring up the things in the car." It didn't take long for Tang Luoyong to walk in with a black suitcase, put it on the dining table, and turned around and left.

Zheng Xudong opened the suitcase in front of Wang Tao, revealing the contents of the box, Wang Tao saw a cement-gray fighter model in the box, he himself is half a military enthusiast, and it can be seen at a glance that this model is modeled on the US F-16, which is very exquisite, except that the scale is reduced, there is no flaw to be seen. Next to the model F-16 aircraft is a smartphone, which doesn't seem right, it's not a mobile phone, it's just an Apple 4 phone. Wang Tao didn't know what Zheng Xudong was doing with these things, but he knew that there must be a reason, so he decided to wait and see.

The aircraft model of this F-16 aircraft is the plane in Zheng Xudong's space, its shape can imitate any aircraft in this world, and Zheng Xudong made it look like F-16, and then took it out of the space and put it in the box, he knew that it was impossible to convince the future hegemon in the UAV field through pale language, so it was still believing, and it had an impact on Wang Tao from the visual sense.

Wang Tao saw Zheng Xudong put the plane on the dining table, and then said, "Little love." ”

Wang Tao thought to himself: Who is Xiao Ai, the woman next to the table seems to be the manager of the investment company named Liu Xiaoli, is the relationship between the two, such a big woman is called Xiao Ai, it's so disgusting!

"Master, I'm here!" Wang Tao heard the cute voice of a six- or seven-year-old girl, and it was definitely not the manager Liu Xiaoli who said it, because she hadn't opened her mouth. Could it be ... Wang Tao stared at the model of the airplane in front of him with wide eyes, "It's it... Talking?"

Zheng Xudong nodded at Wang Tao, "Xiao Ai, now your command is handed over to Wang Tao who is sitting next to me, do you understand?"

"Okay, master. At this time, the nose of the F-16 was directed at Zheng Xudong, but now the plane began to turn slowly, and the nose turned in the direction of Wang Tao, "Brother Wang, please give the flight order." ”

"Can I talk to it directly?" Wang Tao asked with a confused look at Zheng Xudong.

"Try to speak Mandarin and fly within a radius of 500 meters, no problem. Brother Wang, give it a try. ”

Wang Tao's research direction for so many years is remote control technology, but his research direction is still focused on the field of wireless remote control, artificial intelligence remote control he didn't even dare to think, but now there is a sample in front of him. But the truth and the fake will be known at a try.

Wang Tao learned Zheng Xudong's tone, put aside the Hangzhou dialect of his hometown and the Cantonese he had learned after studying in Hong Kong for many years, and tried to say in Mandarin: "Xiao Ai, prepare to take off, fly to the living room, and then circle clockwise over the living room." Do you understand?"

"Okay, Brother Wang. Take off right away. As soon as the words fell, the model of the F-16 airplane on the table immediately accelerated along the long space of the dining table without tableware, and when the space was about to end, the nose of the plane quickly pulled up, and made a beautiful right turn in the air and flew to the living room.

Wang Tao didn't expect this model airplane to be so sensitive, and hurriedly got up from the chair and ran towards the living room, Zheng Xudong smiled and got up from the chair and followed Wang Tao to the living room, Liu Xiaoli followed.

Wang Tao came to the living room and saw that the model plane was hovering around the living room, and a voice suddenly sounded in his ears, "Brother Wang, you can let the model do some complicated actions." ”

Wang Tao looked back at Zheng Xudong, who was smiling, and made a sudden appearance, "Yes, you are right." Little love, turn left... Turn right... Climb... Rappelling... Rolling... With Wang Tao's password, every action of the aircraft model was done accurately and quickly, and basically Wang Tao said that the plane had begun to make movements.

Zheng Xudong opened the glass sliding door of the viewing balcony in the living room and pointed to the sky outside. When Wang Tao saw it, he asked in a low voice, "There won't be a problem, right?"

Zheng Xudong smiled confidently and said: "Fly with confidence, how big your heart is, how big its sky is!"

Wang Tao was obviously still a little skeptical of Zheng Xudong's statement, but he still said suspiciously: "Xiao Ai, fly out of the living room window, then climb 500 meters, and then return to the balcony window." ”

"Okay, Brother Wang!" After speaking, the F-16 flew out of the living room with a whoosh, and went straight into the blue sky. When Wang Tao came to the balcony, he looked up and saw only a gray shadow in the sky.

After more than ten seconds, I saw that the gray shadow was getting bigger and bigger, swooping down from a high altitude, and soon stopped outside the balcony outside the suite and began to hover.

"Can you still make any more moves?" Wang Tao said as he looked at Zheng Xudong.

"Whatever you want within a radius of 500 meters. Zheng Xudong said lightly, after speaking, he took out a camel cigarette and lit it for himself, and when he handed it to Wang Tao, he waved his hand, and then said: "Xiao Ai, now start doing cobra maneuvers (fighter jets' aerobatic maneuvers, it seems that only China, the United States and Russian fighters can do it now. )”

I saw that the F-16 aircraft model first flew flat into the distance, and then flew to a distance of 500 meters when it turned around and flew back at high speed, when there were still 100 meters away from the balcony of the big house, suddenly the mechanism of the plane was raised upward, and the whole plane was almost at a 90-degree vertical angle with the ground, and then the plane quickly returned to the right and continued to fly, this action is like a cobra to stand up before the head and body are attacked, so the name is called "cobra" Maneuvering, people in the real industry call this maneuver Pugachev Cobra maneuver, because it was named after the former Soviet pilot Pugachev who first performed this maneuver at the 1989 Paris Air Show.

Next, Wang Tao is like a child who gives orders to "Xiao Ai" for various aircraft aerobatic actions, such as bell-shaped maneuvers: the plane first flies level, pulls up, and the ascent speed is reduced to zero when the nose points straight up, and then the nose gradually turns and falls, like a bell-ringing mallet. Barrel rolling: It is a 360-degree roll of the aircraft along its own horizontal axis, and the real barrel roll is a spiral. Inmaiman Turn: This is an aerobatic maneuver named after the German ace pilot Inmaiman of World War I, some people call it a combat turn, and a little more vividly, some people call it an ascent half-roll reversal. Flat Spiral: This is an action that requires a high level of skill from both the aircraft and the pilot. From the perspective of flight trajectory, the plane descends in a small radius spiral with a very steep trajectory, much like a leaf that rotates and falls in the air. Kurbit: At first glance, it looks like a somersault, but it's distinctly different from a somersault. But this action is actually a somersault with a small radius of the plane, which looks like a somersault around its tail at a lower speed, and it might be more vivid to say that it is a backflip. Hammerhead maneuver: In this action, the aircraft first turns from level flight to vertical upward, and then gradually decelerates, the nose slowly swings to one side, gradually enters the horizontal from the vertical upward position and then enters the vertical downward, and finally dives out, the whole hammer maneuver lies in the fact that the aircraft completes the whole process of ascending, reversing and diving, and the entire fuselage plane is basically kept in the plumb plane, which is also the difficulty of this action. Levesman: It's actually like a hammerhead maneuver that is done not on the plumb plane, but on a 50-60 degree inclined plane.

Xiao Ai controlled the plane, and the stunts were done one after another, while Wang Tao played as if he had forgotten the time, and finally Wang Tao had fun after playing for more than ten minutes, so that the plane flew back from outside and landed on the ground in the living room.

"Ahh Anton, can you sell me this model airplane? Seeing Zheng Xudong shaking his head, Wang Tao only knew that he was a little presumptuous to make this request, and laughed embarrassedly twice, "I'm sorry!"

Zheng Xudong put the plane in his suitcase, the two sat on the sofa in the living room, Wang Tao stretched out two fingers at Zheng Xudong, "Please bring me a cigarette!"

After taking two puffs of cigarette, Wang Tao said: "I will continue to talk about my views on the topic you just said, I think that in addition to the three bottleneck technologies that restrict unmanned aircraft, there is another technology that is also very important. Without it, the capabilities of the drone are lost by at least half!"

"Oh! What kind of technology is that?"
