A fault tolerant modular machine for a direct drive rotary wing unmanned air vehicle application

Advances in electric drive technology have meant that power to weight ratios and efficiencies have increased to a point where the practical implementation of an electrically driven Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) Unmanned Air Vehicle (UAV) is viable. The replacement of the existing gearbox, tail...
