Propulsion, propellers, and rotors
Propulsion system information and schematic drawing.
Propulsion Systems
The Firebird has 5 propulsion systems, 1-4 are VTOL, all with the same configuration; and 5, which is the forward-flight pusher propulsion system.
The VTOL propulsion systems provide thrust upwards, while the forward-flight propulsion system provides thrust forward.
