This work presents a novel Aspect Ratio-Modular Vertical Take-Off and Landing (ARM-VTOL) aerial robot, which is a meta-aircraft composed of two or more TiltRotor hybrid aircraft systems capable of magnetically being coupled during hovering flight, and of executing VTOL / Fixed-Wing hybrid missions once combined. The proposed meta-aircraft system carries the advantage of improved aerodynamic effici...
