Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If conventional button and rocker control methods are used, then the device structure is simple, but the operation convenience and precision are poor
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces conventional mechanical button and rocker control systems with an electronic command control system. The remote control device uses electronic components including a microcontroller, signal generator, and transmission module to generate and send command signals to the aircraft, eliminating the need for mechanical control interfaces and improving operation convenience through electronic signal processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The remote control device integrates multiple functions into a single unified system. It combines position signal reception, signal processing, command generation, and wireless transmission capabilities in one device, allowing it to perform multiple control functions simultaneously and improving overall operational efficiency and convenience.
2Measurement precision
If conventional button and rocker control methods are used, then the device structure is simple, but the operation precision is poor
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces imprecise mechanical control with electronic signal-based command control. The system uses a microcontroller to generate precise digital command signals that are transmitted wirelessly to the aircraft, enabling more accurate control of flight parameters compared to mechanical button and rocker systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The system incorporates feedback mechanisms where the remote control device receives position signals, processes them through the microcontroller, and adjusts command signal generation accordingly. This closed-loop control approach improves operation precision by continuously monitoring and adjusting control outputs based on received position information.
