Patent US-1912-1201647

Pendulum (or alternatively a "servo motor") ; mechanisms using balance information from pendulum to control aircraft automatically ; emphasis on moving levers based on pendulum. refers to momentum-"checking" forces often; means of control of aircraft are not clear; I did not find these terms in the patent text: ailerons, tail, rudder, elevator, flap, wings). Patentee Tarbox filed many other patent applications and refers to them here, and may have left some things unclear because his mechanisms are in those other patents which are yet secret or described there. Also wishes to encompass "any known type of aircraft", and does not refer specifically to types such as airplane, aeroplane, balloon, aerostat, dirigible, or ornithopter.
