Multiple issues cleanup August 2008 orphan February 2009 refimprove August 2008 no footnotes August 2008 The Dornier Aerodyne was the designation of an unmanned wingless VTOL aircraft. Conceived by Alexander Lippisch , it was developed and built by Dornier on behalf of the Federal German Ministry of Defense. Lippisch was part of the team. The first flight took place on 18 September 1972. The development ended on 30 November 1972 after successful hovering flight testing with the aircraft. Experimentation did not continue due to lack of interest in the Bundeswehr German Armed Forces , and or the desire to undertake plans for manned helicopter s. Description The principle behind the Aerodyne is the combination of lift and thrust production in a single construction unit and flow channel, i.e. a ducted fan. Flaps at the end of the fan divert the outflowing air to produce lift, thrust, or a combination of both. As a result, the Aerodyne could be steered and flown in the entire range between hovering and full forward flight. For forward flight, the Aerodyne had a conventional tail unit at the rear, which allowed for pitch and yaw control. The equipment was unmanned and operated by remote control. It was intended to be a land or ship supported drone UAV for aerial reconnaissance .

Based on the two or three seat AMF Maranda , the Teal was built mostly of wood. It featured strut braced high wing, with W configuration struts running from the wing roots, down to stabilizing floats which also contained the main wheels , then back up the wings near 70 span cruciform tail two pilots seated side by side under the wing access to the cockpit by side doors tricycle undercarriage with the main wheels retracting into stabilizing floats only about 25 of the wing span. The nosewheel retracted into the bow and was covered by two conventional side hinged doors. A rarity among flying boats was its engine location in a nacelle, above the wing, with the propeller rotating immediately in front of the windscreen. From the 1970s to the 1990s plans were sold by Falconar Aviation of Edmonton Edmonton City Centre Blatchford Field Airport downtown municipal airport . A handful were built by amateur aircraft constructors aka homebuilders in Canada and the United States. Most were powered by certified Lycoming Engines Lycoming or Teledyne Continental Motors Continental Piston engine engines . Like many small flying boats, it suffered from a high empty weight and had difficulty competing with float planes. The Falconar Teal has been replaced by lighter, composite construction amphibians like the Quikkit Glass Goose Goose and Progressive Aerodyne SeaRey .
