Abstract
In an implementation, the compound helicopter may include at least one rotary wing system, at least one first power generator and at least one second power generator. The at least one first power generator may rotate the at least one rotary wing blade to provide lift and a primary thrust force in a first direction to the helicopter. The at least one second power generator may be connected to the helicopter and may provide lift and a secondary thrust force in a direction that is independent of a direction of the primary thrust force and may also provide a secondary thrust force in a direction that is substantially parallel to the primary thrust force.
