20230182886 · 2023-06-15 ·

An aircraft includes a fuselage with one or more wings coupled thereto. One or more wheels are also coupled to the fuselage and are configured to allow the aircraft to taxi, take off, and land. A propulsor is used to provide thrust to the fuselage and airflow over the wings. The wings may be fixed in position or may be configured to fold along a line via a hinged system or pivot along an axis. The folding allows the wings to store in a smaller footprint. The fuselage may include one or more safety features. These may include indicator lights configured to illuminate or reflect an amount of light. Additionally, the aircraft may include an occupant safety system with the likes of an airbag and even an anti-lock brake system coupled to the one or more wheels.
