In some embodiments, a rotor assembly for an aerial vehicle includes a main body; and four or more rotors having blades mounted relative to the main body for rotation about respective axes configured to provide thrust predominantly in a common direction. Respective blade trajectories of rotors of at least one pair of adjacent rotors of the four or more rotors rotate in different planes. The blade trajectories of the at least one pair of adjacent rotors partially overlap when viewed along a line containing the common direction.
