With six cyclorotors, the BlackBird from CycloTech is designed to take off and land vertically, move sideways, brake mid-air and even parallel park.
The 360° thrust vector control also allows the aircraft to brake ... vertical take-off and landing, and maximum stability at various pitch angles (up to 30 degrees while hovering).
They enable critical functionality such as thrust vector control, landing gear deployment and control surface manipulation in UAVs. In unmanned surface and subsea vehicles, actuators manage rudder ...
