The age of unmanned aerial vehicles UAVs<\/a> has well and truly dawned but designers aren’t resting on their laurels when it comes to improving the capabilities of these multi-talented aircraft. One innovation that’s come to the fore recently is the use of an enclosed four rotor platform (see our recent look at the CyberQuad<\/a>) which offers a number of advantages including greater stability, agility, hovering ability and a smaller footprint. This unique new design from Britain’s VTOL Technologies takes this idea a step further, adding four movable rotors to a single “flying-wing” to create an aircraft that claims to deliver a higher payload capacity for its size and up to four times the endurance of current vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) UAV designs…<\/p>\n Tags:<\/b> Aircraft<\/a>, Related Articles:<\/b><\/p>\n The age of unmanned aerial vehicles UAVs has well and truly dawned but designers aren’t resting on their laurels when it comes to improving the capabilities of these multi-talented aircraft.
