Dusan, Couldn't agree more with your analysis. And, in addition to efficiency, when trying to evaluate the system safety of such distributed lift aircraft on a redundancy versus complexity scale or chart without considering the proven robustness of systems ...
The most effective aircraft, in the sense that it needs the least amount of energy, is the fixed wing aircraft. Its high effectiveness comes from the large lift drag ratio (L/D) characteristics of the wing. A VTOL aircraft, besides vertical take-off and ...
