Abstract
A drone or an aircraft for personal air mobility includes at least one horizontal planar structure having four ducted propeller rotors with vertical axis, which are substantially coplanar with each other. Each of the rotors has a rotating ring rotatably mounted within a circular opening. The rotating ring is configured as to define an annular wall for ducting of air flow produced by the rotor. Each of the rotors has one or more blades which extend towards the central axis of the rotor, and have tips terminating at a distance from the axis of the propeller, such that each rotor is an annular propeller. The rotating ring of each rotor is controlled by an actuator.
