Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In the realm of transitioning eVTOL aircraft, hindrance may be placed on performance in each of the two flight modes due to the existence of apparatuses or devices intended wholly for the other mode. For example, the presence of wings will normally reduce hover endurance due to their weight, and the use of a plurality of exposed lift-propellers - for hover stability and control - can lower flight speed and range in airplane mode because of the excess drag. It would seem, then, that transitioning eVTOL aircraft are generally poor performers in any mode when compared to their dedicated, single-mode cousins. This paper explores another possibility, of substantial performance improvement when the devices or their use become elements augmenting performance in the other mode - or cross-modally. Through an example dual-propeller aircraft, several cross-modal elements - including phenomena like the fan-in-wing effect and the inverse of Custer's channel-wing effect - are identified and their merits expounded.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
