Vertical take-off and landing aircraft and method of controlling the same

This invention relates to the field of aircraft technology, specifically to a vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) aircraft and its control method. The VTOL aircraft includes a tailless flying wing fuselage. Multiple drag rudders are mounted on the trailing edges of the left and right wing surfaces of the fuselage. These drag rudders can deflect vertically, generating differential drag through asymmetric deflection to provide yaw control torque for the fuselage. A tiltrotor quadcopter system is also mounted on the fuselage. The left and right propellers of the tiltrotor quadcopter system can differentially adjust their speed to further assist in providing yaw control torque. This invention significantly improves the aircraft's crosswind resistance during VTOL by eliminating the vertical takeoff and landing phase, while also achieving better aerodynamic efficiency during level flight. The integrated drag rudders and tiltrotor quadcopter system on the fuselage provide yaw control torque, thereby improving the aircraft's directional stability.
