A flight control system includes a lift control algorithm which selectively communicates with the pitch command of the flight system control algorithm. The lift control algorithm selects the proper control commands to coordinate an effective transition between hover and forward flight. The most efficient vehicle pitch during transition is thereby automatically generated so that sufficient lift and control throughout the transition between rotor borne and wing borne flight.

A cooling system for a hybrid aircraft includes an inlet which extends through the body to communicate airflow to a powerplant subsystem and out through an exhaust within a rotor duct. In a hover mode, there is a significant low-pressure area created inside the rotor duct by the rotor system. The low-pressure area within the rotor duct assists in drawing air through the inlet and over the engine via the exhaust. A cooling fan is located adjacent the inlet to augment cooling-air flow. The cooling fan is smaller than conventional practice because it does not have to provide the entire pressure difference to force air-cooling flow over the engine. In a transition mode, the low-pressure area created inside the rotor duct decreases but ram air pressure through the inlet increases. In a forward flight mode, the pressure inside the rotor duct is approximately atmospheric but significant ram air is provided from the inlet due to forward flight speed.

244 123

An unmanned aerial vehicle that includes a fuselage with a partial toroidal forward portion, and an aft portion. A duct is formed through the fuselage and extends from the top to the bottom of the fuselage. Two counter-rotating rotor assemblies are mounted within the duct for providing downward thrust through the duct. The rotor assemblies are supported by a plurality of support struts. At least one engine is mounted within the fuselage and engages with the rotor assemblies. A pusher prop assembly is mounted to the aft portion of the fuselage. The pusher prop assembly is designed to provide forward thrust along the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. The pusher prop assembly includes a drive shaft that is engaged with the engine. A plurality of propellers are attached to and rotated by the drive shaft. A shroud is mounted to the aft portion of the fuselage around the propellers and is operative for channeling the air passing through the propellers in a substantially aft direction.

A method for landing a VTOL aircraft includes winching down an external load under the force of gravity such that the external load is hung a predetermined distance below the VTOL aircraft and lands prior to the VTOL aircraft. In an autorotation situation, the VTOL aircraft is essentially performing a flair at an altitude which is equivalent to the predetermined distance such that the external load achieves a relatively soft landing suitable for a manned external load.

A rotary wing aircraft includes an airfame and an extending tail extending from the airframe. A main rotor assembly is operably connected to the airframe and includes a plurality of rotor blades operably connected to a rotor shaft, and one or more active adaptive devices located at one or more rotor blades of the plurality of rotor blades. The one or more active adaptive devices are operably connected to an aircraft flight control system such that, when activated, the one or more active adaptive devices change one or more operational characteristics of the rotor assembly. A tail rotor is operably connected to the extending tail. The tail rotor is rotatable about a tail rotor axis and the tail rotor axis movable from laterally-extending to rearward-extending.

An improved interface between a paint or other viscous fluid container and its paint dispensing device that enables the store-bought architectural containers to be used as part of a mobile fluid dispensing system, thereby eliminating the need for paint transfer and saving the cost of special fluid dispensing containers generally required in mobile fluid dispensing systems.

A rotor hub fairing system includes an upper hub fairing, a lower hub fairing and a shaft fairing therebetween. The rotor hub fairing system reduces the total drag on a dual, counter-rotating, coaxial rotor system. Other aerodynamic structures may be mounted to the shaft fairing, hub fairings and airframe to facilitate flow around the upper and lower hub fairings to reduce flow separation and drag.
