    摘要: A propelling system with variable aerodynamic controls is a system used to generate and control the flight forces of an aircraft. The system includes a stator, a rotor, a plurality of propelling units, and a control system. The stator serves as the stationary connection to the aircraft. The rotor revolves the propelling units about a central rotation axis. The control system enables the control of the propelling units. The propelling units generate the flight forces for the aircraft in the desired direction. In addition, each of the propelling units include a blade body, a shaft channel, a spar shaft, and at least one aileron assembly. The shaft channel receives the spar shaft within the blade body. The spar shaft connects the blade body to the rotor. The blade body passively corrects its angle of attack and supports the aileron assembly. The aileron assembly adjusts the pitch of the blade body.

    摘要: A gyroscopic orbiter with vertical takeoff and vertical landing capabilities can transition between different functional modes while in-flight. The orbiter typically includes a fuselage, a front boom, a front propulsion unit, a rear boom, and a rear propulsion unit. The front boom is mounted at two pivot points to a bow of the fuselage by the front boom. The rear boom is mounted at two pivot points to a stern of the fuselage by the rear boom. One functional mode is the vertical takeoff and landing mode, wherein the propulsion units are oriented parallel to each other and are directed upward. Another functional mode is the shuttle mode, wherein the propulsion units are oriented at an angle with each other, and the front propulsion unit is directed forward. Another functional mode is the high speed mode, wherein the propulsion units are oriented collinear with a roll axis of the fuselage.
