Abstract:
A device for controlling thrust vectoring of a cyclorotor includes a control cam positionable relative to a drive shaft of a cyclorotor along each of a first axis and a second axis, where the drive shaft is rotatable about a third axis. The device may further include a frame having a plurality of sides, where the frame is disposed at least partly around the drive shaft of the cyclorotor, a first positioning assembly disposed on a first side of the frame, where the first positioning assembly is structurally configured to move the frame along the first axis, and a second positioning assembly disposed on a second side of the frame, where the second positioning assembly is engaged with the control cam and structurally configured to move the control cam relative to the frame along the second axis.
