Right now, the F-22A and the Russian Sukhoi Su-37 and Su-30MKI (flying with the Indian air force) are the only fighter aircraft with two-dimensional thrust vectoring nozzles. More sophisticated ...

The upshot is that you can super-quickly vector the thrust the Cyclorotor produces, with 360-degree freedom – and when you're talking about VTOL aircraft ... Regular propellers need time to ...

Thus [Valkyrie Workshop] has come up with a simple but ingenious rig to evaluate a motor and propeller combo without ... allowing a direct readout of the thrust in grams or kilograms.

Unlike conventional propellers ... This omnidirectional thrust vectoring capability unlocks unprecedented maneuverability.

FAA regulations require drone enthusiasts and commercial operators to equip their unmanned aircraft with approved remote ... Razor VTOL drone with vectoring jet-powered thrust. (Photo: Mayman) The ...

In addition, the shape of the channel deflects propeller thrust ... are designing an unmanned aircraft that would be controlled only by directed airflow and thrust vectoring, and the Navy is ...

Fly without wings or propellers? One team just made it happen—this breakthrough could forever change how we take to the skies.

The 360° thrust vector control also allows ... CycloRotors enable the construction of compact aircraft, potentially half the size of those using propellers or rotors. This compact design means ...
