A rotary wing device adapted to be rotated about its longitudinal axis and to be propelled forwardly with its longitudinal axis having a small upward pitch angle relative to the forward flight direction in order to generate an upward lifting force on the device. The rotary wing device has a plurality of laterally spaced-apart cylindrically disposed wing segments. Preferably, the wing segments are parallel to each other, are parallel to the longitudinal axis of the device, and have streamlined edges. Preferably, the wing segments are mounted for rotation about the longitudinal axis of the device by front and rear mounting rings which engage and stabilize the front and rear tips of the wing segments. The mounting rings are perpendicular to the wing segments and have streamlined edges. The preferred embodiment is a throwable aerial toy having its center of mass located on the forward half of its longitudinal axis and being statically and dynamically balanced relative to said longitudinal axis. The throwable aerial toy flies a considerable distance with a surprisingly flat straight line trajectory.
