ABSTRACT:
A transverse axis tubular hub (24) couples each propulsion unit (4) to the vehicle body (2), and supplies signals representative of the forces that it transmits. A tilt motor (22) of the propulsion unit bears on the hub to tilt the propulsion units about a transverse axis, on which a drive motor is disposed.
