This site uses no cookies, no external fonts and no tracking. The server keeps only technical logs (IP, timestamp, requested file) necessary to operate, purged regularly. If you contact me by e-mail or phone, your data will be processed only to answer your inquiry.

Forms on this site (e.g. contact, newsletter) are forwarded to me by the external service FormSubmit.co, which processes what you enter and your IP address. I use the data only for the purpose of the form. If you prefer not to use a form, write to me directly by e-mail.

If I write to you as a company

I write to companies whose services and websites fit what I offer, and offer them my work. For this I process your business contact data (name, role, business e-mail address and phone number) taken from your legal notice (Impressum) and your publicly accessible website. The legal basis is my legitimate interest in initiating business (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Right to object: You can object to the processing of your data for initiating business at any time, without giving reasons (Art. 21(2) GDPR). A short reply to my e-mail saying "No" is enough.

I do not sell your data and do not pass it to third parties for their own purposes. The only recipients are service providers working on my behalf: my e-mail provider and, for research and drafts, artificial-intelligence services, including providers based in the USA.

I keep your data for at most 12 months after the last contact and then delete it. If you have objected, only your e-mail address stays on a block list so that I do not write to you again.

You have the right of access, rectification, erasure and restriction of processing. You can also lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority; in Bavaria this is the Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision (BayLDA, Ansbach). Contact: the e-mail address above.

Flight-test sensing and data analysis for paraglider, paramotor and kite developers

I build the sensors, log the data in flight and turn it into numbers you can base development decisions on.

Available from mid-November 2026 · on-site in Germany, Austria and Switzerland

What I build

Low-speed air data

True airspeed and angle of attack at the low flight speeds of soft wings.

Canopy internal pressure

Pressure sensing inside the wing.

Pilot-input measurement

Control forces and control travel, measured in flight.

Synchronised logging

All channels logged together with IMU, GNSS and video, so every manoeuvre can be analysed across sensors.

What I deliver

In-flight calibration

Calibration of airspeed and flow-angle sensors from flight data.

Wind and installation errors

Estimation of wind and sensor installation errors with an extended Kalman filter and smoother.

Glide polar and trim

Glide-polar and trim analysis from the measured flights.

System identification

Flight-dynamics models identified from flight data.

Test reports

Reports written for development decisions: what was measured, how reliable it is, and what it means for the wing.

Track record

SkySails, 2020–2024

Wind-field estimators for large traction kites.

ParaDoc, 2026

My own sensor hardware, flown on my paramotor: working EGT monitoring and alarm; acoustic and vibration diagnostics in development.

See ParaDoc →

Paragliding variometer with sensor fusion, 2014–2015

Nonlinear estimation, first-principles modelling, data acquisition and test flights.

Research

PhD on economic nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) for the LHC cryogenics at CERN; NMPC and state estimation for wind turbines at IAV.

Pilot

1,000+ hours paragliding, 500+ hours gliding.
