Abstract

See full text

One method for ejecting a battery from an electric flying vehicle includes monitoring one or more batteries providing power to the electric flying vehicle during a flight, determining when at least one of those batteries is operating as a hazardous battery posing a safety risk to the electric flying vehicle while in flight, activating an ejection system disconnecting the hazardous battery from a chassis of the electric flying vehicle, and ejecting the hazardous battery from the electric flying vehicle during the flight. The system operating this process may include a sensor that monitors the operating state of the batteries, a controller in communication with the sensor for determining when the one or more of the batteries is hazardous, and an actuator opening enough of the housing to permit ejection of the hazardous battery out from within the electric flying vehicle midflight.
