Abstract
A redundant propulsion device includes a propeller and electric motors. The electric motors are configured to drive the propeller. The electric motors are disposed with respect to a propeller shaft of the propeller so that, around the propeller shaft, at least one of the electric motors is disposed at each of the locations in the longitudinal direction of the propeller shaft. The electric motors are disposed at positions such that an output shaft of each of the electric motors does not overlap an output shaft of any other one of the electric motors as viewed in the longitudinal direction of the propeller shaft from the propeller.
