Unmanned aerial vehicle with monolithic wing and twin-rotor propulsion/lift modules

This drone features a single, flat wing with a unique propulsion system at each wingtip. Each wingtip module can rotate around the wing's length, and each module has two outward-facing arms, each with a propeller. This specific design allows the drone to fly in various modes, from airplane-like flight to vertical take-off and landing, by individually controlling the rotation of the modules and the speed of each propeller.

Why it matters: Since 2017, advancements in drone flight control software and more powerful, compact processors have made complex multi-axis control systems for such versatile aircraft significantly more feasible and efficient to implement.
