> This is a puller configuration (blades at the front) where the rear set of blades does not rotate. These rear blades are effectively a set of variable-pitch ‘stators’ which can efficiently manipulate the thrust airflow generated by the rotating front set, while further reducing mechanical complexity, weight and noise.
