A multi-copter lift body aircraft has a lift body that has a first airfoil shape on a front to rear cross-section. The lift body has a nose and a tail. A multi-copter propeller is attached to the lift body. The multi-copter propellers provide a lift at low speeds, and the lift body provides a lift at high speeds. The multi-copter propeller is mounted to a shaft. A shaft angle is formed on the multi-copter propeller, and the shaft angle provides a forward thrust. The shaft angle is angled upward and forward and the shaft angle is not perpendicular to a chord line of the lift body. Avionics are stored in a hollow cavity of the lift body. The avionics include a control circuit, batteries, and a radio receiver.
