摘要： A compound vertical takeoff and landing aircraft includes a fuselage with a modular payload configuration for passenger, cargo, or medical transport functions; contra-rotating main rotors mounted on an upper side of the fuselage and driven by at least one motor; and a plurality of tiltable thrusters mounted respectively at a forward section and at an aft section of the fuselage, each tiltable thruster being powered by one or more separate motors. The motors driving the contra-rotating main rotors and the tiltable thrusters may all be electric. The tiltable thrusters may be ducted or unducted and may each be provided with one or more control surfaces at an aft end. Battery modules may be located underneath a floor of the fuselage and may be arranged in one or more groups of batteries so as to so as to facilitate removal and replacement of the batteries.
