Abstract:
The invention relates to an aerodyne with vertical take-off and landing ability and the ability to generate lift by means of both rotors and fixed wings, which includes: a fuselage (1); two fixed wings (2); two front rotors (11) and two rear rotors (12) arranged symmetrically and actuated by means of motors (13), each rotor (10) being attached to a central portion of a fixed wing (2) by means of a support (14) and connected pivotably about a connection shaft (E2), which allows changing the inclination of each rotor (10) from a longitudinal forward movement position, in which they propel the aerodyne horizontally, to a lift position in which it provides vertical lift; said rear rotors being in a lift position partially overlapping a portion of the wing including a flap (20) freely connected to the rest of the wing, the position thereof being determined between a lift position and a longitudinal forward movement position by the effect of the aerodynamic thrust.
