摘要: The present disclosure provides a multi-rotor Aerial Vehicle comprising at least five arms. Pairs of coaxial contra rotating rotors/propellers are configured on each arm defining polygon. In the event failure any one rotors/propellers, control system incorporating an autopilot, shuts off corresponding rotor/propeller pair to maintain yaw stability thereby rendering non-functional; and adjusts throttles remaining functional arms tilt lift Vehicle.
