The Royal Starship was normally accompanied by a small wing of N-1 starfighters. Although Episode I probably is the worst Star Wars movie, the Nubian Royal Starship is one of the most beautiful. It was the most prominent ship in the Phantom Menace and deserves to be released as a Lego set. These droids would even venture onto the surface of the ship's outer hull during flight, braving the vacuum of space and enemy fire to make emergency repairs. Lego never published the iconic Royal Naboo Starship as an official set, so I built one on my own. When the starship was damaged, up to 8 astromech droids could be automatically deployed. Intricate sensors built into the craft reported damage instantly, allowing the crew to locate trouble spots immediately. Its powerful deflector shields could withstand large amounts of damage, including bombardment by turbolaser emplacements. The Royal Starship had no weapons since it was designed as a peaceful ambassadorial ship. The ship's Headon-5 sublight engines, which had been modified by the Naboo to be environmentally friendly, could exceed the speed of most starfighters. The T-14 hyperdrive had a 327 core that gave the royal starship an impressive hyperdrive class of 1.8. It could also be raised from a compartment in the floor to allow easy checking, repairs and even complete replacement. The T-14 was compact and accessible, unlike most other hyperdrives, and was powerful enough to take the ship from Naboo to Tatooine in a single jump even when damaged. The rest of the ship's components were provided by the Nubian Design Collective, including the impressive T-14 hyperdrive generator. Non-royal Naboo ships were forbidden to display chromium. Only the Queen's own vessel could be entirely chromium-covered, but royal starfighters, such as the Naboo N-1, had chromium on the front of their engines. The frame was covered in chromium, formerly used to shield starships from radiation and some forms of laser attacks, but later used simply in a time-honored tradition.

This spaceframe, created by the skilled engineers of the Theed Palace Space Vessel Engineering Corps under the guidance of Staven Kremmo, was a single, long supple hull.

Naboo engineers claimed that the Royal Starship was actually composed of two major components: the spaceframe and all the other components. It was, in fact, reserved only for use by the Naboo sovereign.
