Abstract

Est divulguée dans la présente invention une voiture volante reconstructible. Un corps principal de corps de voiture est relié de manière amovible à un ensemble aile, à un ensemble de propulsion, à un ensemble empennage et à des ensembles rotors à axes multiples au moyen d'un mécanisme de liaison de manière à former différentes configurations de reconstruction de la voiture volante ; et après que la configuration de reconstruction statique de la voiture volante est déterminée au moyen d'un module de commande principal, une reconstruction dynamique est sélectionnée pour commander la commutation de la voiture volante entre différentes configurations de reconstruction pendant le fonctionnement, de sorte que la voiture volante sélectionne différentes configurations de reconstruction de la voiture volante pour un fonctionnement dans différents scénarios. Par la combinaison d'une reconstruction statique et d'une reconstruction dynamique, la présente invention permet d'obtenir la transformation de configuration de la voiture volante dans différents scénarios et répond aux exigences en termes de de marque et répond également aux exigences en termes de coût.
