Vectored thrust compressor for remote controlled aircraft

A vectored thrust compressor, comprising:

• (a) a compressor assembly housing having a forwardly facing air intake;
• (b) a first fan assembly;
• (c) a first pair of adjustable directional thrust nozzles disposed behind said first fan assembly, each nozzle adapted to connect to said compressor assembly housing on opposite sides thereof;
• (d) means for diverting a portion of an air flow through said first pair of thrust nozzles;
• (e) a second fan assembly;
• (f) a second pair of adjustable directional thrust nozzles disposed behind said second fan assembly, each nozzle adapted to connect to said compressor assembly housing on opposite sides thereof;
• (g) means for simultaneously rotating said thrust nozzles by remote control;
• and
• (h) a drive shaft connected to said first and second fan assemblies.

A vectored thrust compressor, comprising:

• (a) a compressor assembly housing having a forwardly facing air intake;
• (b) a first fan assembly located within said compressor assembly housing near to said air intake;
• (c) a forward stator having turbine-like support vanes and located behind said first fan assembly for aiding air flow control and for internally supporting said compressor assembly housing;
• (d) a first pair of adjustable directional thrust nozzles disposed behind said forward stator, each nozzle adapted to connect to said compressor assembly housing on opposite sides thereof;
• (e) a ring deflector disposed between said first pair of thrust nozzles, said ring deflector being slightly curved, having an open center, having a lip extending from its outer edge toward its center, and having guide vanes located adjacent to said first pair of thrust nozzles for directing an air flow through said first pair of thrust nozzles;
• (f) a diffuser located behind said thrust vectoring assembly formed by the walls of said compressor assembly housing, said diffuser being cone-shaped and having its larger end contiguous to said ring deflector;
• (g) a rear stator having turbine-like support vanes and positioned behind said diffuser for aiding air flow control and for internally supporting said compressor assembly housing;
• (h) a second fan assembly located behind said rear stator;
• (i) a second pair of adjustable directional thrust nozzles disposed at the aft end of said compressor assembly housing behind said second fan assembly, each nozzle adapted to connect to said compressor assembly housing on opposite sides thereof;
• (j) means for simultaneously rotating said thrust nozzles by remote control;
• and
• (k) a drive shaft coupling said first and second fan assemblies and housed in an elongate drive shaft enclosure.

In a remotely controlled aircraft, a vertical take-off and landing propulsion system, comprising:

• (a) a compressor assembly housing having a forwardly facing air intake;
• (b) a first fan assembly;
• (c) a first pair of adjustable directional thrust nozzles disposed behind said first fan assembly, each nozzle adapted to connect to said compressor assembly housing on opposite sides thereof;
• (d) means for diverting a portion of an air flow through said first pair of thrust nozzles;
• (e) a second fan assembly;
• (f) a second pair of adjustable directional thrust nozzles disposed behind said second fan assembly, each nozzle adapted to connect to said compressor assembly housing on opposite sides thereof;
• (g) means for simultaneously rotating said thrust nozzles by remote control;
• and
• (h) a drive shaft connected to said first and second fan assemblies;
• (i) an engine connected to said drive shaft.
