Abstract
Mobile surveillance systems (MSSs) and related techniques are provided to improve the safety and operational flexibility of unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). An MMS may include an extendable mast, a motor configured to control movement of the extendable mast between a stowed position and a deployed position, and a logic device configured to communicate with and control the extendable mast and the motor. The logic device may be configured to adjust a speed of the motor based on a position of the extendable mast between the stowed position and the deployed position and based on deployment or stowing of the extendable mast. The logic device may be configured to adjust a torque of the motor based on the position of the extendable mast and based on deployment or stowing of the extendable mast.
