Think big, start small, fail quickly, and scale fast. These principles, often acclaimed within business strategy, may also have an unusual application in aircraft conceptual design. Modern electronics have brought capable and inexpensive sensing devices to the palm of our hands. We can also go from ideas to printed objects in a matter of hours. The same technology that enables the so-called drone revolution can also be used to test innovative concepts on aircraft models outside the walls of costly wind tunnels. Remote flight-testing of simplified, scaled prototypes costs no more than a fraction of what full-scale tests do, but it may still be able to answer some valuable questions during early design stages. This thesis offers an insight into these possibilities from both a theoretical and a practical point of view.
