Autonomous propulsion apparatus and methods are disclosed. An example autonomous propulsion unit (106) includes a flight controller (112) capable of executing flight control instructions stored in a memory of the autonomous propulsion unit; and a propulsor to generate propulsion in accordance with the instructions for a payload carrier to which the autonomous propulsion unit is coupled, wherein the flight controller (112) is to provide flight control for the propulsor (106) in an absence of flight control instructions from the payload carrier.
