[0027] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0028] Example: Figure 3 Figure 8 As shown, the vertical take-off and landing aircraft starts the coaxial reverse propeller power device 37 to control the aircraft to leave the ground and move upward.
[0029] Further, if Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 5 Figure 6 Figure 8 As shown, when the aircraft rises to a certain height, the servo motor 8 is started to drive the left gear 6 and the right gear 7 to rotate. The left gear 6 and the right gear 7 use the left linear rack 4 and the right linear rack 5 to push the movable body 2 to the rear of the body 1. When the permanent magnet 35 on the limit slot 9 moves to the position of the rear magnetic sensor 11, the movable body 2 reaches the preset position. The rear magnetic sensor 11 sends a signal to stop the servo motor 8 and then locks it. At this time, the aircraft has been changed into a shape close to that of a conventional fixed-wing aircraft.
[0030] Further, as 1 Figure 8 As shown, the left horizontal rudder wing 17 and the right horizontal rudder wing 22 are controlled to adjust the aircraft to a level flight cruising attitude. During the level flight cruising process, the aircraft can be controlled according to the control method of a conventional fixed-wing aircraft.
[0031] Further, if Figure 1 Figure 8 As shown, when flying forward to a high altitude close to the destination, the left horizontal rudder wing 17 and the right horizontal rudder wing 22 are manipulated to adjust the aircraft to a vertical attitude.
[0032] Further, if Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 5 Figure 6 Figure 8 As shown, the servo motor 8 is started in reverse to drive the left gear 6 and the right gear 7 to rotate. The left gear 6 and the right gear 7 use the left linear rack 4 and the right linear rack 5 to move the movable body 2 to the front of the body 1. When the permanent magnet 35 on the limit slot 9 moves to the position of the front magnetic sensor 10, the body 2 reaches the preset position, and the front magnetic sensor 10 sends a signal to stop the body 8 and then locks it. At this time, the movable body 2 has retracted into place, and the aircraft is restored to the shape before take-off and can perform landing operations.
[0033] Further, if Figure 1 Figure 8 As shown, the coaxial reverse propeller power device 37 is controlled to make the aircraft slowly descend to the ground.
[0034] Further, if Figure 1 Figure 8 As shown, after the aircraft is stabilized at a stop, the coaxial reverse propeller power device 37 is shut down, and the flight process ends.
[0035] The above is only a specific implementation of the present invention, and the unexplained parts are conventional technologies, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention and ordinary technicians in the technical field should be included in the protection scope of the present invention without departing from the principle of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
