<p>The carrier block (130) of each engine of the drone comprises: a carrier part (131) to which there are fixed an electric motor (120) for driving a propulsion unit (100) of the drone and at least one component (111) of the propulsion unit intended to be coupled to the motor; a stand (132) for supporting the drone on the ground; and a linking element (133) extending between the carrier part and the support stand. The support stand and the linking element together have a release space (134) for the electric motor while this motor is being positioned for fixing to the carrier part.</p>
