A model spaceship having a tubular propulsion duct (1) with fan (25) to which a circular wing (2) is attached at a top-forward position and pod wings (3,4) positioned at each opposite top-side position. The circular wing (2) is supported by a forward strut (8) extended forwardly and upwardly from a top-front portion of the propulsion duct (1). Each pod wing (3,4) is supported by side struts (5,6) extended sidewardly and upwardly from an intermediate portion of the propulsion duct (1). The pod wings (3,4) are joined by a horizontal wing (7) that provides lift and horizontal stabilization. Contour of the circular wing (2), the pod wings (3,4), the side struts (5,6) and the horizontal wing (7) all provide lift. Lateral attitude control is provided by ailerons (15) on the pod wings (3,4). An elevator flap (18) for horizontal attitude control is positioned on an aft edge of the horizontal stabilizer wing (7). A model-airplane motor (24) provides rotation of the duct fan (25) for propulsion. Remote control of the ailerons (15), elevator (18) and motor (24) are provided by conventional remote controls (61) used for motorized model airplanes.

A spaceship comprising: a propulsion duct having a tubular form with an inside periphery, an outside periphery, an intake end and a discharge end; a ducted fan having a fan shaft concentric to a linear axis of the propulsion duct and positioned inside of the intake end of the propulsion duct; a rotational prime mover attached to the propulsion duct and having rotational-drive relationship to the fan shaft; a circular wing attached to a forward strut extended upward vertically and forwardly from a front portion of the outside periphery of the propulsion duct; a first pod wing attached to a first side strut extended sidewards and upwards at a select angle from a first side of an intermediate portion of the outside periphery of the propulsion duct; a second pod wing attached to a second side strut extended sidewards and upwards at a select angle from a second side of an intermediate portion of the outside periphery of the propulsion duct; a stabilizer wing extended horizontally between the first pod wing and the second pod wing; an aileron attached pivotally to each pod wing; an elevator attached pivotally to a rear edge of the stabilizer wing; and a rudder means on an aft portion of the propulsion duct.
