Flapless flight demonstrated by a UAV

Hello Future Engineer,

A relatively new method of controlling flight without using control surfaces (that is ailerons, rudder or an elevator) has been demonstrated by a UAV. The control is via jets of air emanating from nozzles embedded within the blended wing body structure.

You can see videos and learn more about it here.
