摘要: A system for establishing a primary function display for an electrical vertical takeoff and landing aircraft. The system further includes a plurality of sensors that detects at least a metric and generates at least a datum based on the at least a metric. Specifically, state of charge is at least generated based on the performance metric of an energy source. The system further includes a display to show the at least a datum. The system further includes a controller that receives the at least a datum and generates a visual to the pilot.

摘要: Aspects relate to systems and methods for orienting a thrust propulsor in response to a failure event of a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft. An exemplary system includes a plurality of lift propulsors mechanically connected to a VTOL aircraft, wherein each of the plurality of lift propulsors are configured to produce lift, a plurality of sensors, wherein at least a sensor is configured to detect a failure of at least a lift propulsor, and transmit a failure datum, a thrust propulsor mechanically attached to the VTOL aircraft with an orientable joint, wherein the thrust propulsor is configured to produce thrust and orient the thrust propulsor as a function of a thrust orientation datum, and a flight controller configured to receive the failure datum, generate a thrust orientation datum as a function of the failure datum, and transmit the thrust orientation datum to the orientable joint.
