Unmanned aerial vehicle for transporting cargo

Abstract

The invention relates to an unmanned aircraft for transporting suspended loads, with two wings (16, 17) extending in opposite directions to a longitudinal axis (18) of the aircraft (11) and fixedly aligned to the longitudinal axis (18) of the aircraft (11) and designed as aerodynamic profiles by which lift is generated during flight, and with at least one rudder (27) provided on the wing (16, 17), with at least two drives (22), wherein at least one drive (22) is provided on each of the two wings (16, 17), wherein the aircraft (11) can be controlled in flight from a hovering flight with a substantially vertical orientation of the longitudinal axis (18) of the aircraft (11) to a horizontal flight with a substantially horizontal orientation of the longitudinal axis (18) of the aircraft (11) and back again.wherein a load-bearing device (14) is provided for attaching a rope (32) for transporting loads suspended below the aircraft (11), and a force is introduced from the load to be transported (12) into the aircraft (11) through the load-bearing device (14) in or near the center of gravity of the aircraft (11), independently of flight operations.
