Abstract

Abstract The vehicle is driven by a propeller (2), a casing (1) extending from the engine over the propeller and beyond it. The casing has flaps (9a, 9b) in the end facing the propeller. It has further flaps (5a, 5b, 3a, 3b) in the sides at right angles to the end flaps. When the side flaps are closed and the end flaps open the propeller drives the vehicle in the normal way. When the end flaps are closed and the side flaps opened the jet of fluid from the propeller is reversed in direction by the closed end and escapes through the open flaps.
