A propelling system with variable aerodynamic controls is a system used to generate and control the flight forces of an aircraft. The system includes a stator, a rotor, a plurality of propelling units, and a control system. The stator serves as the stationary connection to the aircraft. The rotor revolves the propelling units about a central rotation axis. The control system enables the control of the propelling units. The propelling units generate the flight forces for the aircraft in the desired direction. In addition, each of the propelling units include a blade body, a shaft channel, a spar shaft, and at least one aileron assembly. The shaft channel receives the spar shaft within the blade body. The spar shaft connects the blade body to the rotor. The blade body passively corrects its angle of attack and supports the aileron assembly. The aileron assembly adjusts the pitch of the blade body.
