DISTRIBUTED ELECTRIC PROPULSION AIRCRAFT SIMULATING A SINGLE PROPELLER AIRCRAFT

摘要

It is disclosed a distributed electric propulsion fixed-wing aircraft comprising a plurality of propulsive units, wherein propulsive units are arranged symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal plane, wherein of propulsive units comprises first propulsive units at a first side of the longitudinal plane and second propulsive units at a second side of the longitudinal plane, wherein the distributed propulsion aircraft further comprises a control unit configured to provide a yawing moment so that a sideslip angle is generated, so that the distributed electric propulsion aircraft flies as a fixed-wing aircraft equipped with a single propeller.
