Abstract
Since flying speed of a parafoil is slow, influence of a wind is large. Therefore, guidance control of parafoil requires using the wind data. The purpose of this study is propose the simple wind-measurement technique using three total pressure tubes which were shifted 45 degrees. And we estimated the wind direction based on flight data.
