Abstract: An exemplary anti-torque system for a rotorcraft includes a fan located inside of a channel that extends inside of a fuselage from an inlet proximate a forward end of the tail boom to an outlet at an aft end of the tail boom, the outlet is oriented to direct airflow from the channel onto a rudder coupled to a trailing edge of a vertical stabilizer.

Abstract: An aircraft includes a fuselage, and a wing extending from the fuselage along a spanwise axis. A section of the wing is rotatable about the spanwise axis. A ducted fan is mounted to the section of the wing. The ducted fan has a hub configured to be drivingly engaged by an engine. The hub is rotatable about a fan axis. Blades protrude from the hub between roots mounted to the hub and tips radially spaced from the hub. A duct circumferentially extends about the fan axis and is mounted to the tips of the blades to rotate with the blades about the fan axis. The section of the wing and the ducted fan are rotatable about the spanwise axis between a hover mode in which the fan axis is substantially perpendicular to a ground, and an aircraft mode in which the fan axis is substantially parallel to the ground.
