[0035] In the above embodiment, when the rudder produces different angles of inclination, the paddle also causes different angles of inclination, so the paddle gives the rudder a reaction force, and the upper limit position torsion arm A 250 and the upper limit position torsion arm B 260 can further limit the upper inclined disc 130, that is, limit the maximum inclination angle of the upper inclined disc 130 in the Y1 plane, and the two upper straight rudders 110 are connected to the hinge nodes of the upper inclined disc 130, that is, the m point and the n point of the upper limit position torsion arm A 250 and the upper limit position torsion arm B 260 can limit the rotation movement of the upper inclined disc 130 with the straight line where the m point and the n point are located as the axis, and due to installation requirements, the horizontal section width of the upper limit position torsion arm A 250 is greater than that of the upper limit position torsion arm B 260, and the upper limit position torsion arm A 250 is provided with a weight-reducing groove on the horizontal section, and the weight-reducing groove faces downward, so that rainwater is not accumulated in the weight-reducing groove, and similarly, the lower straight rudder 180, the lower limit position torsion arm A 230, the lower limit position torsion arm B 240 and the lower limit position arm fixing frame 270 above the gear box 220 have the same installation connection mode as the lower straight rudder 180, the lower limit position torsion arm A 230, the lower limit position torsion arm B 240 and the lower limit position arm fixing frame 270 below the gear box 220, and the corresponding elements between them are symmetric about the center of the gear box 220, and the lower limit position torsion arm A 230 and the lower limit position torsion arm B 240 limit the lower inclined disc 120 in the same way as the upper limit position torsion arm A 250 and the upper limit position torsion arm B 260 limit the upper inclined disc 130.

[0036] The principle of the present application is that the upper inclined disc 130 is installed at the lower end of the gear box 220 and connected to the two upper straight rudders 110, the upper inclined disc 130 is controlled to incline in the plane Y1 through the two upper straight rudders 110, so that the upper rotor 310 is controlled to move through the upper variable-pitch pull rod 150, so that the aircraft can produce pitching movement, the lower inclined disc 120 is installed at the upper end of the gear box 220 and connected to the two lower straight rudders 180, the lower inclined disc 120 is controlled to incline in the plane Y2 through the two lower straight rudders 180, so that the lower rotor 320 is controlled to move, so that the aircraft produces aileron movement, wherein the plane Y1 and the plane Y2 are both vertical planes and perpendicular to each other. The two sets of inclined discs can ascend and descend along the vertical direction under the control of the straight rudders, and together complete the total distance change of the aircraft, so that the helicopter can move straight up and straight down; the lower inclined disc 120 remains in a horizontal stable state, and the upper inclined disc 130 is in a forward or backward inclined state in the plane Y1, so that the aircraft can move forward or backward; the upper inclined disc 130 remains in a horizontal stable state, and the lower inclined disc 120 is in a left or right inclined state in the plane Y2, so that the aircraft can move left or right; the upper inclined disc 130 remains in a forward inclined state, and the lower inclined disc 120 is left or right inclined, so that the aircraft performs a rolling movement. In order to prevent the inclined disc from moving beyond the inclination movement range, an inclined disc limiting plate is used for limiting.

[0037] The present application changes the pitch control mechanism to use two sets of two steering machines to control the upper and lower sets of tilt plates, thereby controlling the upper and lower sets of rotors. One set controls the pitch of the aircraft, and the other set controls the roll of the aircraft. The two sets of steering machines work together to achieve the functions of elevators, forward flight, and left and right steering. The rotor control functions are clear and do not interfere with each other, improving the efficiency of rotor control, reducing the complexity of the structure, improving the overall reliability of the device, and being easy to maintain.
