A VTOL with a redundant propulsion system, the redundant propulsion system comprising two independent groups of rotors, and each group of rotors are driven by an independent engine. When any failure is detected in the first group of rotors or in its connecting parts, the second group of rotors will be accelerated to take over the first group of rotors to supply flying thrust, or vice versa. The VTOL is quiet, low cost, easy to maneuver and highly reliable, and can be used in future personal transportation.
