Various reconfigurations of propulsion mechanisms, propellers, propeller blades, and/or blade sections of propulsion mechanisms, and/or wing sections of a ring wing of an aerial vehicle are described. For example, responsive to a fault or failure of a propulsion mechanism, the remaining propulsion mechanisms, propellers, propeller blades, and/or blade sections of the remaining propulsion mechanisms, and/or one or more wing sections may be modified to maintain control and safety of the aerial vehicle. In example embodiments, cant angles, toe angles, positions, and/or orientations of one or more propulsion mechanisms, angular orientations, positions, and/or lengths of one or more propellers, propeller blades, and/or blade sections of propulsion mechanisms, and/or positions, angular orientations, pitches, and/or pivots of one or more wing sections may be modified to maintain control and safety in either a horizontal, wingborn flight orientation, or a vertical, VTOL flight orientation.
