This is a proof of concept experimental hybrid aircraft. A Rotax engine in the nose drives an electric generator to charge batteries in the wings and a tail mounted electric motor. There are options for a pure electric aircraft or one powered by a fuel cell, the Rotax powered one having a range of up to 800km carrying four passengers. All are quiet and efficient This photo is copyright © Mick Bajcar, and may not be used or published in any way without permission. It was added on 23 June 2025, and has since been viewed 221 times. |
