A system for deploying and retrieving an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with a UAV carrier including a UAV bay, where the system includes a UAV pad including a UAV pad base and a UAV pad coupler to couple the UAV to the UAV pad base; a mechanical arm including a first end configured to couple to the UAV carrier, and a second end configured to couple to the UAV pad; and a controller configured to determine a deployment position for the UAV pad, determine a retrieval position for the UAV pad, control the UAV pad, and control the mechanical arm.

System and method for launching and retrieving unmanned aerial vehicle from carrier in motion

A computer-implemented method for prioritized flight data transmission includes receiving a frame of flight data from one or more aircraft data sensors, the frame of flight data comprising a plurality of parameters collected from one or more avionics systems, associating each parameter of the plurality of parameters with a respective priority level, decomposing the frame of flight data into a plurality of flight data frame layers, wherein each flight data frame layer of the plurality of flight data frame layers comprises a subset of the plurality of parameters having respective priority levels that are equivalent, and transmitting, to a ground station, a first flight data frame layer of the plurality of flight data frame layers comprising parameters having a highest respective priority level.
