摘要: A multirotor aircraft with an airframe that extends in a longitudinal direction, and with at least one thrust producing unit for producing thrust in a predetermined thrust direction, wherein the at least one thrust producing unit comprises a shrouding that is associated with at least one rotor assembly comprising at least one electrical engine, wherein the shrouding defines a cylindrical air duct that is axially delimited by an air inlet region and an air outlet region, and wherein a carrier beam is at least mounted at a leading edge region of the cylindrical air duct to the shrouding such that the carrier beam is arranged inside of the cylindrical air duct and oriented at least essentially in parallel to the longitudinal direction, the at least one electrical engine being mounted to the carrier beam.

摘要: A vertical take-off and landing multirotor aircraft with an airframe and at least eight thrust producing units, each one of the at least eight thrust producing units being provided for producing thrust in an associated predetermined thrust direction, wherein at least four thrust producing units of the at least eight trust producing units form a first thrust producing units sub-assembly, and at least four other thrust producing units of the at least eight thrust producing units form a second thrust producing units sub-assembly, the first thrust producing units sub-assembly being operable independent of the second thrust producing units sub-assembly.
