PERSONAL USE AIRCRAFT, OR DRONE, WITH DIRECTIONAL AND/OR THRUST JET GENERATION SYSTEM USING ELECTROMAGNETIC INJECTORS POWERED BY COMMON RAIL AND JET GENERATION SYSTEM USED THEREIN

An aircraft (1) for personal use or a drone comprises a plurality of nozzles (N) distributed along front wings (W) and in the rear part of the aircraft (1), for emission of directional jets for control of the attitude of the aircraft (1) in flight, and/or of thrust jets designed to provide additional lift and/or additional thrust to the aircraft (1). Each nozzle (N) includes a nozzle chamber (N1) and an outlet mouth (N2) for outlet of the jet. The aircraft (1) is equipped with a system (5) for generating jets, including a system (6) for supplying pressurized fuel to the chambers (N1) of the nozzles (N), and a system (7) for supplying combustion-supporting fluid under pressure to the chambers (N1) of the nozzles (N). The fuel-supply system (6) includes a plurality of electromagnetically driven injector devices (J) each associated to a respective nozzle (N), and a common rail (13) that receives pressurized fuel from the high-pressure pump (11) and supplies it to the injector devices (J). An electronic controller (E) keeps the pressure in the common rail (13) within a pre-set range of values and drives said injector devices (J) independently of one another to inject pressurized fuel into the chamber (N1) of each nozzle (N) in order to obtain a mixture with the combustion-supporting fluid that gives rise to combustion by compression. The combustion produces an explosion that generates a jet of fluid at outlet from the nozzle (N). The fuel-supply system is configured according to the prior art known in the sphere of systems for supplying fuel to diesel engines. Selon l'invention, un aéronef (1) destiné à un usage personnel ou un drone comporte une pluralité de buses (N) réparties le long d'ailes avant (W) et dans la partie arrière de l'aéronef (1), en vue de l'émission de jets directionnels servant à la commande de l'attitude de l'aéronef (1) en vol, et/ou de jets de poussée conçus pour fournir une portance supplémentaire et/ou une poussée supplémentaire à l'aéronef (1). Chaque buse (N) comprend une chambre (N1) de buse et une embouchure (N2) de sortie servant à la sortie du jet. L'aéronef (1) est équipé d'un système (5) de génération de jets, comprenant un système (6) destiné à fournir du carburant sous pression aux chambres (N1) des buses (N), et un système (7) destiné à fournir du fluide d'assistance de combustion sous pression aux chambres (N1) des buses (N). Le système (6) d'alimentation en carburant comprend une pluralité de dispositifs injecteurs (J) act
