摘要: A control device (1) of a flying object includes a generator (11), a driving source (12), a battery (13), an electric motor (3), a rotor blade (4), a battery status determination part (5), a variable pitch mechanism (6), and a pitch change control part (7). The electric motor (3) is driven by electric power supplied from at least one of the generator (11) and the battery (13). The rotor blade (4) is driven by the electric motor (3). The battery status determination part (5) determines a state of charge of the battery (13). The variable pitch mechanism (6) changes a pitch of the rotor blade (4). The pitch change control part (7) determines whether the pitch of the rotor blade (4) is changed based on a charging rate of the battery determined by the battery status determination part (5).

摘要: Disclosed is a variable pitch propeller blade for an aircraft turbine engine. The blade includes an airfoil connected to a root, the root having a body housed in an annular barrel that extends around a pitch axis of the blade, the body including a free end opposite the airfoil; a shoulder towards the airfoil; and a bulb located between the free end and the shoulder. The bulb can have a cross-section, referred to as the middle section, that has a maximum value Sm, and the barrel can be affixed to the body and covers and matches at least a portion of the bulb and the shoulder.
