Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to an aerial launch and/or recovery for an unmanned aircraft and to associated systems and methods. A representative method operating an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) system comprises a step of enabling a first multi-rotor transportation aerial vehicle to transport a second loaded aerial vehicle to the sky and separating the second aerial vehicle for flying while supplying power to a first aerial vehicle by using a built-in battery. Additionally, the present invention can include a method for positioning a capturing string in a flight route of the second aerial vehicle to enable the first aerial vehicle to capture the second aerial vehicle. 무인 항공기에 대한 공중 발사 및/또는 회수, 그리고 이와 관련된 시스템 및 방법. 무인 항공기(UAV) 시스템을 작동하는 대표적인 방법은 제1 다중 로터 운반 항공기가 제2 적재된 항공기를 하늘 위로 운반하고, 내장 배터리로 제1 항공기에 전원을 공급하면서 제2 항공기를 비행을 위해 분리시키는 단계를 포함한다. 방법은 제1 항공기가 제2 항공기를 포획하기 위해 제2 항공기의 비행경로에 포획줄을 위치시키는 방법을 추가로 포함할 수 있다.
