magento how to call custom model

How can I call model in a custom module? Lets assume that model is really simple one and returns just arrays of static data.

I have a directory structure similar to this:

How can I include Model1.php inside controller? If I go with Mage::getModel('Mypackage/Modul/Model1) it returns error since it searches model inside Mage/Module/Model/Model1.php

Thanks!

Mage::getModel('mypackage_module/modeltest) should work. But first check your config.xml. You should have declared it like so:

          <models>
            <mypackage_module>
                <class>Mypackage_Module_Model</class>
                <resourceModel>modeltest_mysql4</resourceModel>
            </mypackage_module>
            <modeltest_mysql4>
                <class>Mypackage_Module_Model_Mysql4</class>
                <entities>
                    <modeltest>
                        <table>mypackage_module</table>
                    </modeltest>
                </entities>
            </modeltest_mysql4>
          </models>

This should work: Mage::getModel('module/model_model1')->modelmethod();

Please note that the model folder should be "Model" not "Models"
