Abstract
An aircraft includes: a main body; arms extending substantially horizontally from the main body; rotors that are located at distal ends of the arms and generate lift by rotating; first motors that are coupled to the rotors and rotate the rotors; motor mounts supporting the first motors; and second motors that rotate the motor mounts relative to the arms. The motor mounts each includes a mount proximal end, a mount distal end, and a bent part. The first motors are each fixed to the mount distal end. The mount proximal end is disposed so as to extend substantially vertically upward from the arm. The motor mounts are each coupled to the distal end. The second motors each rotates the mount proximal end with respect to the arm to switch an orientation of a plane of rotation of the rotor between a radially inclined orientation and a circumferentially inclined orientation.
