A foldable propeller for air mobility includes a link assembly including a plurality of links facilitating blades to be rotated around a hub as a moving portion vertically slides such that the blades are folded to each other or unfolded from each other.

Systems and methods for operating an engine of a rotorcraft are described herein. An engine parameter indicative of torque of the engine is obtained. A decrease of the torque of the engine is detected. At least one rotorcraft parameter indicative of at least one command to control the rotorcraft is obtained and evaluated to determine whether one of an autorotation mode and a powered flight mode of the rotorcraft has been commanded. When the powered flight mode of the rotorcraft has been commanded and the decrease of the torque has been detected, a shaft shear of the engine is detected and a signal indicative of the shaft shear is transmitted. When the autorotation mode of the rotorcraft has been commanded and the decrease of the torque has been detected, detection of the shaft shear is disabled during operation in the autorotation mode.
