Fluidic thrust vectoring control (FTVC) represents a paradigm shift in the management of exhaust flow direction within jet and rocket nozzles. By injecting secondary fluid streams or manipulating ...

The start-up believes it can deliver a quantum leap in performance with technology using a small flow of compressed air from a turbo-compressor to suck in a much greater volume of ambient air, ...

When it comes to the emerging UAM (urban air mobility) sector, some companies focus on developing specific eVTOLs (electric vertical take-off and landing), and others on developing vertiports. But a ...

Wind tunnel model has fluidic thrusters over the wing for lift augmentation and embedded in the fuselage for vertical thrust. Credit: Jetoptera U.S. startup Jetoptera has completed wind tunnel testing ...

Orlando startup JetX is planning a configurable eVTOL "flying car" chassis, and testing a quiet, modular propulsion system that vectors thrust from bladed or bladeless fans without tilting them, ...
