Starting and landing of a flying sports car: https://lnkd.in/eRiT6Cgc
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. When 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, enabling all the functions of a conventional tailplane to be performed by changing the angle of attack of the four wings alone. This means that a conventional tail unit can be dispensed with, for example at the rear of the aircraft, significantly reducing drag. A turbine is integrated into the body of the car, featuring 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 maneuverability of airplanes seems complicated. The climb, descent, and curved flight of man-made airplanes require the activation of different adjustable surfaces, such as the rudder, elevator, and ailerons. In contrast, a hawk demonstrates unsurpassed maneuverability using only its wings and tail. What would a future airplane look like if it followed this natural role model? Could an airplane be maneuvered mainly by wing adjustments? The RES-Foldable Airplane features a new maneuvering system for aircraft airframes. Its foldable airframe comprises a fuselage extending between a bow and tail segment, 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 airplane 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.

Res Foldable Rotor: https://lnkd.in/ePX-EGKu
US, EU and DE patents are granted: 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, enabling it to fulfill the requirements for both road transport and electric flight. The rotor blade comprises three distinct parts, with the central component serving as a load-bearing spar that houses electric actuators for controlling 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 maneuverability. The central rotor shaft is driven by two independent electric motors, each with its own power supply. The blade adjustment actuators are also redundant and, in the event of a total power failure, this rotor craft can fly by auto-rotation.

Leaving Solid Ground Behind: https://lnkd.in/e2KRZQap
US, EU and DE patents are granted: https://lnkd.in/eG3rxDAw, https://lnkd.in/e4AJ8DX6, https://lnkd.in/gFesNkZY
Welcome to the virtual maiden flight of this small regional aircraft! The following considerations went into designing the aircraft: 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, electric motors have been integrated into the centre spar of the rotor blades to enable variable suction on the asymmetric wing profile. The teardrop-shaped fuselage can open extensively on the starboard and port sides to facilitate passenger boarding and cargo loading, eliminating the need for a centre aisle. This vertical take-off aircraft has a hybrid propulsion concept, comprising a rotor for vertical take-off and a propeller arrangement at the tail, enabling an operating speed of over 200 km/h. The centre section of the bracket-shaped rotor blades enables the aircraft to hold its position very precisely during hover flight and to accelerate in any direction from hover flight. The rotor has a folding design, enabling the aircraft to fit into a standard-size garage.

Unlike the design shown under #resfc7, the lateral thrust to compensate for the rotor torque is achieved here with a so-called "NOTAR" (No Tail Rotor). Access to the aircraft is via elegant wing doors. According to current opinion, the future of air taxis is just a stone's throw away.

How to reduce drag of an eVTOL: https://lnkd.in/ewvYzqh9
US, EU and DE patents are granted: 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 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 patent specifications listed above.

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
US, EU and DE patents are granted: 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 the transportation of 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, and in the event of a total power failure, this rotorcraft can fly by auto-rotation. Airworthiness has been proven by simulations and the design includes redundant safety provisions. A calibration has also been performed for the electric gear integrated in 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.
