A two-dimensionally gimballed propeller produces vectored thrust. A directional propeller generates a two-dimensional propulsive thrust vector without adverse moments or translational forces. Forces necessary to control the propulsive vector are minimized by directing the vector through the propeller's aerodynamic center apart from the power source delivered to the propeller via a driveshaft having a fixed orientation.
