According to one aspect, a flight controller constructed to control a parafoil in flight from a starting location to a target location is provided. The flight controller includes an interface constructed to connect to one or more actuators and one or more wind sensors, a memory, a processor coupled to the memory, the interface, and a flight manager component executable by the processor. The flight manager component is configured to identify the target location and the starting location, receive wind data, determine a relationship between a ground reference frame (GRF) and a wind fixed frame (WFF) based on the wind data, generate a trajectory between the starting location and the target location in the WFF, determine a desired heading based on the trajectory and the relationship between the GRF and the WFF, and generate an actuator control signal based on the desired heading to adjust a heading of the parafoil.
