A propulsion system comprising independent rotor sub-systems producing a thrust force of a desired magnitude in any desired radial direction from the centre of the propulsion system, driven from a single driveshaft that may be fixed in its position in the vehicle. When the propulsion system is fitted, for example, to a single-main-rotor helicopter in place of the convention anti-torque tail rotor, the helicopter is thereby equipped with a propulsion system that can produce yaw, pitch, the anti-torque lateral thrust for stability in hover, aft thrust or drag as well as the direct forward thrust that will enable the helicopter to fly at higher speeds. The propulsion system may also be applied in other aeronautical systems as well as to marine and industrial systems to impart energy into a fluid and thereby induce movement in that fluid.
