As said in the title. These three are fascinating because they are basically three different ways of doing the same thing: VTOL small transport with props.
- tilt the entire wing + engines + propellers (CL-84)
- tilt only the engines and the propellers (XV-15)
- tilt only the propellers (V-280)
Of the three, the V-280 looks the simplest / safest. I'm wondering why it didn't happened before 2020 ?
- lack of imagination ?
- or plain technical issues ?
