    Abstract: A method of flight control including having a vertical takeoff and landing aerial vehicle that has a plurality of lift propellers disposed on two linear support pieces, and there are two vertical stabilizers disposed at the rear of the two linear support pieces. A rotating shaft of each lift propeller from among the multiple lift propellers outwards forms an angle of 5 degrees to 15 degrees relative to a vertical plane of the aerial vehicle perpendicular to a horizontal plane of the aerial vehicle. The aerial vehicle of the present disclosure improves the heading axis control capacity of the aerial vehicle and reduces the restriction to the design size of the aerial vehicle.
