PairTilt: Design and Control of an Active Tilt‐Rotor Quadcopter for Improved Efficiency and Agility

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
PairTilt is an actuated tilt‐rotor unmanned aerial vehicle capable of active shape reconfiguration, balancing simplicity, efficiency, and agility. Its H‐shaped frame incorporates pairwise tiltable rotors, which reduce gyroscopic torque and decouple key dynamics, enhancing maneuverability and reducing drag.

Fuel Weight Fraction Estimation for a Disk–Rotor Hybrid Aircraft Along an Optimal Flight Trajectory During Concept Design

International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Owing to the transition flight of rotor/wing hybrid vertical take‐off and landing (VTOL) aircraft, the fuel weight cannot be estimated from empirical data during the conceptual design phase. This paper proposes a method for estimating the minimal fuel weight fraction (FWF) through a strategy of trajectory optimization under a given flight profile.
