Abstract
An electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft including a teetering propulsor assembly is provided. The teetering propulsor assembly includes a propulsor, the propulsor including a monolithic blade including first and second blade portions extending radially outward from a hub, formed as a single unit. The coupling assembly includes a pair of torsional bearings coupled at the hub of the monolithic blade. The torsional bearings allow the monolithic blade to passively teeter in response to external forces applied to the propulsor, and exert a biasing, or centering, or restoring force on the monolithic blade that returns the monolithic blade to a neutral position. The torsional bearings may include an elastomeric member having relatively high stiffness, such as a high capacity laminate bearing.
