Patent ID: 8042762

Claim:
A vertical take-off aircraft with a main body, the said aircraft comprising a main power plant, with vertical lift being achieved by means of the main power plant forcing air in a downward direction and which main power plant is connected to the main body of the aircraft by a tilt enabling joint such that the main power plant can be tilted in a plurality of directions and angles relative to the main body of the aircraft, in a controlled manner, and which said tilt enabling joint is connected to the main body of the aircraft, with an additional power plant connected to the aircraft, which additional power plant is able to force air to travel in a horizontal direction, such that by forcing air to travel in a horizontal direction, relative to the main body of the aircraft, a rotational force exerted on the main body of the aircraft by the main power plant can be countered, and which additional power plant is connected to the aircraft such that tilting of the main power plant relative to the main body of the aircraft is able to cause the additional power plant to move relative to the main body of the aircraft.
