A compound rotor aircraft, comprises a fuselage, a lifting rotor, wings and thrust propellers, wherein the fuselage has a cabin for driving; the lifting rotor is configured to drive the fuselage to move in the vertical direction; a plurality of wings are provided and arranged symmetrically on the two sides of the fuselage; a plurality of thrust propellers are provided and arranged on the plurality of wings respectively, and are configured to provide horizontal thrust force to the fuselage to drive the aircraft to move in the horizontal direction. The aircraft has various flight modes such as helicopter mode, compound helicopter mode, gyrocopter mode, compound gyrocopter mode and fixed-wing cruising mode, and can be transited among the modes. In the case of power failure of the lifting rotor, the aircraft can be transited into a gyrocopter state and continue the flight safely.
