Also known as a tail-sitter and a flying wing, the rotor-blown wing takes off vertically with lift from its propellers and then transitions into forward wing-borne flight.

Airplane wings would rotate out from the body of the craft, allowing for flight with less air resistance than a helicopter experience. Another option is to attach propellers to a flying car’s wings.
