CONVERTIPLANE Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC B64C27/22 B64C37/00 

FIELD: aircraft engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to aircraft engineering, particularly, to vertical take-off and landing of an aircraft. In the method, the convertible aircraft contains a fuselage, front and rear fenders, power units containing engines and propellers, a keel, a landing gear, pylons, made with the possibility of rotation. Two lifting power units are located on the pylons with one degree of freedom for the yaw angle on the sides of the fuselage with the possibility of locking the position and retracting in the fuselage niches during horizontal forward or backward flight. Further, the basic propulsion system is installed on the pylon in the nose of the fuselage or on the keel. Said pylon is made with two degrees of freedom for the bank and pitch angles with the possibility of locking the position.

EFFECT: it provides increased reliability, safety, increased flight range and reduced cost of the convertible aircraft.
