    Abstract: A tiltrotor aircraft includes a rotatable nacelle that supports a rotor assembly and is pivotally attached to the aircraft's fuselage. A wing extension attaches to an outboard section of the nacelle. The wing extension provides additional yaw control during helicopter mode and additional lift during airplane mode. A method for controlling at least a portion of yaw movement includes positioning the rotor assembly in helicopter mode, creating rotor wash with the rotor assembly, and pivotally rotating the wing extension in the rotor wash.

    Abstract: A rotorcraft having multiple rotors, and wings that provide lift in forward flight, has mechanical coupling between rotors that can be disengaged and optionally reengaged, during flight. The coupling can, which can prevent a failure of one rotor from interfering with rotation of the other rotor(s), can be accomplished using many different types of devices, including for example, dog clutches and friction clutches, and collapsible clutches. Disengagement can range from being completely under control of an operator, to partially under operator control, to completely automatic. Among many other benefits, designing, manufacturing, fitting, retrofitting or in some other manner providing an aircraft with a device that can disengage rotation of one of the rotors from that of another one of the rotors during flight can be used to improving survivability in an emergency situation.

    Abstract: A cycloidal propulsion unit for controlling a thrust vector includes a hub that rotates about a hub axis. Further, the unit includes an airfoil blade pivotally mounted on the hub along a blade axis parallel to the hub axis. As a result, the blade may pivot about the blade axis while traveling along a blade path during rotation of the hub. The unit further includes a ring that rotates around a ring axis parallel to the hub axis. The ring is interconnected with the blade via a control rod. Also, a device is engaged with the ring to selectively position the ring axis relative to the hub axis. As a result of these structures, selective positioning of the ring axis provides control of the rotation of the blade about the blade axis as the blade travels along the blade path.
