Abstract: A multi-rotor flying machine includes a body on or in which a motor is mounted; and a respective head rotor mounted for rotation on a respective mast at each of at least three locations disposed around and spaced laterally outwardly from the motor. The motor is drivingly connected to each mast, for rotating each head rotor, by a respective driveline. Adjacent to at least one mast, the machine further includes a pitch rudder system that includes a pitch driver or rotor, or translational rotor. The arrangement is such that the head rotors are operable to provide thrust, while the pitch rudder system enables yaw to be achieved independently of operation of the head rotors.
