The invention relates to the field of aviation, and more particularly to designs for vertical take-off and landing aircraft. A convertiplane comprising a fuselage, a pair of wings: fore and aft, propulsion systems comprising engines and propellers, a keel, a landing gear, and pylons designed so as to be rotatable. Two lift propulsion systems are arranged on the pylons with one degree of freedom with respect to the yaw angle along the sides of the fuselage so as to be fixable in position and retractable during horizontal flight forward or back in fuselage niches. A basic propulsion system is mounted on a pylon with two degrees of freedom with respect to the angle of bank and pitch so as to be fixable in position, and is arranged either in the nose section of the fuselage or in the keel, on the leading edge or the trailing edge thereof. This provides improved reliability and safety, increased flight range and reduced cost of the convertiplane.
