State of the art general comments:- Transport drones are not flying autonomy.- Future autonomy flying drones will have to fulfil high safety standards - Drones today have no trust vectoring they have to rotate to create a horizontal velocity - This means especially for passengers that the drone orientation is driven by the wind and the reaction of the flight control 1. A gimballed propulsion unit for an airframe, comprising a thruster centrally mounted in a gimbal with a first axis of rotation of the thruster relative to the airframe, an actuator attached to the gimbal that is configured to control the rotational position of the gimbal with respect to the airframe. (corresponds to unit of figure 2)
