Abstract
An aircraft with an in-boom lift propulsor includes a fuselage, a boom with a recess in the upper surface, and a lift propulsor comprising of a motor assembly and a propulsive element. Motor on the aircraft is operated through an interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force on a shaft of the motor. The in-boom lift propulsor helps prevent damages to the motor assembly and the aircraft by absorbing torque from the rotor and absorbing moment from the mating flange, where the mating flange joins the motor assembly to the boom. The boom includes an access panel to service the motor assembly and invertor during maintenance.
