AN AIR VEHICLE CAPABLE OF VERTICAL DEBONDING AND LANDING. VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL FLIGHT AND POWER GENERATION IN FLIGHT

Abstract

An air vehicle comprises: a main body arranged in a first direction; two main wings arranged with respect to the main body in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction, the two main wings are arranged oppositely with respect to each other; two units tilt control main wing coupled respectively to the main wings and adapted to control the main wings for that incline independently from each other; two main propulsion units arranged respectively on the main wings; tail wings arranged on a rear side of the main body in the second and third directions substantially perpendicular to the first direction; a rudder arranged on the rear wing of the third direction; a tilt drive unit of rudder adapted to control the inclination of the rudder; tail a propulsion unit arranged on the back side of the main body; a tilt drive unit tail adapted to control the tilt of the propulsion unit tail; a power unit adapted to provide power to propulsion units main and tail; and a position controller adapted to control the control units tilt main wing, the main propulsion units, the tilt control unit of rudder, the propulsion unit tail unit and the tilt control tail, for adjusting the position of the air vehicle while it is in the air.
