Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2021155385A1] Disclosed is a VTOL aircraft, and a method of operating the same. The VTOL aircraft employs a propulsion system comprising at least one propulsion unit, which can be rotated to generate lift during VTOL operations and thrust during cruise. A folding wing is employed to provide lift during cruise, and to meet external size constraints during storage and VTOL operations.
