US Patent granted: https://lnkd.in/eVwYbges
German Patent granted: https://lnkd.in/dVgSWVE
This sports car has four wings arranged in pairs. For road use, they are stored inside the car, but for flight, they can be unfolded. As the distance between the two nodes and the fuselage changes, the angle of attack of the front and rear wings changes in opposite directions. The starboard and port wings can be moved independently of each other, meaning that all the functions of a conventional tailplane can be performed by simply adjusting the angle of attack of the four wings. This means that a conventional tail unit can be dispensed with, for example at the rear of the aircraft, significantly reducing drag. A turbine integrated into the body of the car features a characteristic air intake at the top and an air exhaust at the rear. The video clip provides an impression of the manoeuvrability of this innovative flying car.

Climbing and diving of a flying sports car: https://lnkd.in/danhavz
US Patent granted: https://lnkd.in/eVwYbges
German Patent granted: https://lnkd.in/dVgSWVE
Diving and climbing during flight: Compared to birds, the manoeuvrability of aeroplanes seems complicated. The climb, descent and curved flight of man-made aeroplanes require the activation of different adjustable surfaces, such as the rudder, elevator and ailerons. In contrast, a hawk demonstrates unsurpassed manoeuvrability using only its wings and tail. What might a future aeroplane inspired by this natural role model look like? Could an aeroplane be manoeuvred mainly by wing adjustments? The RES-Foldable Airplane features a new aircraft airframe manoeuvring system. Its foldable airframe comprises a fuselage extending between the bow and tail segments, as well as four wings forming a square with nodal elements. The nodal elements at the bow and tail segments of the fuselage are connected in such a way that the distance between them can be varied during flight by shortening or expanding it. An aeroplane with a rhomboid wing arrangement will climb by shortening the distance and descend by widening it. Curve flight is possible through separate adjustments to the starboard and port wings. Changing the distance between the nodes results in an opposite change in the angle of attack of the front and rear wings, which are connected by the outer nodes.

Foldable rotor blade: https://lnkd.in/ePX-EGKu
Patents granted in the US, EU and DE: https://lnkd.in/eG3rxDAw, https://lnkd.in/e4AJ8DX6, https://lnkd.in/gFesNkZY
This elegant aircraft is equipped with a redundant propulsion system comprising two independent electric motors that drive the rotor. This enables it to fulfil the requirements for both road transport and electric flight. The rotor blade comprises three distinct parts. The central component serves as a load-bearing spar and houses electric actuators that control the leading and trailing edge segments of the blade profile. The vertical component of the bracket-shaped rotor acts as a propeller, generating significant lift using double-decker blades. The longitudinal section of the rotor blades, which are parallel to the axis of rotation, contributes to the aircraft's excellent manoeuvrability. The central rotor shaft is driven by two independent electric motors, each with its own power supply. The blade adjustment actuators are also redundant, meaning that, in the event of a total power failure, the aircraft can fly by auto-rotation.

Leaving Solid Ground Behind: https://lnkd.in/e2KRZQap
Patents granted in the US, EU and DE: https://lnkd.in/eG3rxDAw, https://lnkd.in/e4AJ8DX6, https://lnkd.in/gFesNkZY
Welcome to the virtual maiden flight of this small regional aircraft! When designing the aircraft, we took into account the fact that a rotating wing generates much more lift than a rigid wing. The central part of the three-part wing can be designed as a supporting spar that is rigidly connected to the central axis of rotation. This spar serves as an abutment for both the pivotable nose and trailing edge segments. As the future of flight is electric, we have integrated electric motors into the centre spar of the rotor blades to enable variable suction on the asymmetric wing profile. The teardrop-shaped fuselage opens extensively on the starboard and port sides to facilitate passenger boarding and cargo loading, eliminating the need for a centre aisle. This aircraft takes off vertically and has a hybrid propulsion concept comprising a rotor for vertical take-off and a propeller arrangement at the tail. This enables an operating speed of over 200 km/h. The centre section of the bracket-shaped rotor blades enables the aircraft to hold its position precisely during hover flight, allowing it to accelerate in any direction from this position. The folding design of the rotor allows the aircraft to fit into a standard-size garage.

Unlike the design shown under #resfc7, the 'NOTAR' (No Tail Rotor) system uses lateral thrust to compensate for rotor torque. Access to the aircraft is via elegant wing doors. According to current opinion, the future of air taxis is just around the corner. #resfc6 #resunicorn2 #resairtaxi #resewing #resblade #reselectricflight #automotiv #electricdrive #electricflight #teamres

How to reduce drag of an eVTOL: https://lnkd.in/ewvYzqh9
Patents granted in the US, EU and DE: https://lnkd.in/eG3rxDAw, https://lnkd.in/e4AJ8DX6, https://lnkd.in/gFesNkZY
The fact that the two pilots sit one behind the other drastically reduces air resistance, enabling a flight speed of 200 km/h to be maintained over a longer period of time. The redundant design of the rotor's electrical actuators, together with its gliding capability in the event of total engine failure, meets the requirements for flying over populated areas and cities. Further details can be found in the above-listed patent specifications.

With this elegant coupé, you can escape congested roads and easily jump over obstacles. The battery cells are designed for a flight speed of 200 km/h. The redundant electric actuators of the variable wing profile have two independent circuits. In the event of a total failure of the electric drive, gliding capability is provided according to the principle of a gyro copter. The lift and propulsion power of the innovative rotor is far superior to other eVTOL solutions that require a large number of rotors. If you have any questions, the RES team will be happy to assist you at any time.

One Rotor For Lift And Propulsion: https://lnkd.in/eeGTYVS
Patents granted in the US, EU and DE: https://lnkd.in/eG3rxDAw, https://lnkd.in/e4AJ8DX6, https://lnkd.in/gFesNkZY
To be a leader, you have to be a pioneer! This new bus, which can fly through the air, is making its virtual debut here. The concept is based on the idea that one large rotor is more effective than several smaller ones. The rotating wing provides lift, which increases in proportion to the square of the speed. This enables it to transport up to six passengers from point A to point B using electric propulsion. The outer vertical wing section of the bow-shaped rotor blade acts as a propeller, further enhancing the system's efficiency. The central rotor shaft is driven by two independent electric motors, each with its own power supply. The blades' integrated actuators for adjustment are also redundant, meaning that in the event of a total power failure, the rotorcraft can fly by auto-rotation. Airworthiness has been proven by simulations, and the design incorporates redundant safety features. Calibration has also been performed for the electric gear integrated into the load-bearing centre spar. Finally, the concept is attractive because of its innovative nature. Those who lead the way in future development set an example for their competitors.
