An aerial vehicle includes a body having a center and a number of spatially separated thrusters. The spatially separated thrusters are statically coupled to the body at locations around the center of the body and are configured to emit thrust along a number of thrust vectors. The thrust vectors have a number of different directions with each thruster configured to emit thrust along a different one of the thrust vectors. One or more of the thrust vectors have a component in a direction toward the center of the body or away from the center of the body.

A VTOL vehicle includes a forward rotor, an aft rotor and a fuselage, the forward and aft rotor lying in a longitudinal axis of the vehicle, with the fuselage located axially between the forward and aft rotors. The vehicle has an in-flight configuration wherein the forward rotor is tilted downwardly at a negative tilt angle relative to the fuselage and the aft rotor is tilted upwardly at a positive tilt angle relative to the fuselage.

A multi-rotor passenger-carrying aircraft with foldable aircraft arm, including an aircraft body, a fixing mechanism, a connector and an aircraft arm. The fixing mechanism is fastened on the aircraft body, an end of the aircraft arm is articulated to the fixing mechanism, which is provided with a first mounting hole, and the aircraft arm is provided with a second mounting hole. When the aircraft arm is in a folded state, one end of the connector is removably attached to the fixing mechanism through a first fastener, and the other end is removably attached to the aircraft arm through a second fastener, keeping the fixing mechanism at a first angle with the aircraft arm. When the aircraft arm is in a working state, a third fastener is passes through both the first and second mounting holes to cause the fixing mechanism to be fixedly connected to the aircraft arm and kept at a second angle with the aircraft arm.
