An aircraft is disclosed. The aircraft includes a first pair of wings, each wing in the first pair of wings including one or more actuating flaps configured to move to facilitate the aircraft transitioning between a forward cruise mode and a vertical hover mode, and operating in one of the forward cruise mode or the vertical hover mode. The aircraft further includes a second pair of wings, and one or more propellers coupled to the second pair of wings and oriented horizontally to provide upward lift.
