EADCO, or European Aerospace Design Consultants, announced a partnership with PC-Aero to build the Elektro E6, a six-seat, two-engine electric aircraft that by 2019 will be able to carry a payload of 480kg up to 500km. It's just a design for now Researchers from the University of Cambridge have successfully tested the world’s first aircraft powered by both an electric motor and a gasoline engine. Paul Robertson of the Cambridge Department of Engineering says, until quite recently the batteries The aircraft, developed by researchers from Cambridge University with funding support from Boeing, is powered by a parallel hybrid-electric propulsion system where an electric motor and petrol engine work together to drive the propeller. It uses up to 30 If they lose one engine, they’ll have 17 more to fall back on. NASA is testing an experimental 31-foot aircraft wing with 18 electric motors placed along the leading edge. The wing is made of carbon composite, while the electric engines are powered by General Electric's (NYSE: GE ) aviation unit -- GE Aviation -- has been 'powering a century of flight' across the globe. During the First World War, the company designed America's first airplane engine "booster" or turbosupercharger, and in the 90-odd This is all about average for a light aircraft of this size. What’s unique are those 18 electric engines, and the wing, which has a total area of just over 5 square meters. In order to fly, a conventional airplane of this size needs three times as much .
the grounds below shook from the roar of the fighter bomber's twin engines. When the next aircraft took to the sky, the air show went eerily quiet. The fully electric E-Fan aircraft, engineered by Airbus Group, made one of its first public demonstrations The aircraft, a small one-seater, uses a combination of an electric 10KW and gas 7KW engines to turn the propeller. An article from Cambridge university claims: The demonstrator aircraft uses up to 30% less fuel than a comparable plane with a petrol-only The aircraft comes in three versions: The Series E 200 features a 20kW all-electric engine with a top speed of 87 mph and a range of 25 miles on a full charge. The Series G 240 comes with a 24 bhp petroleum-powered engine that allows for a cruising speed Developed by NASA, the GL-10 Greased Lightning is an unmanned hybrid-electric aircraft that can swivel its wings and engines — into the vertical position for vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL), and then horizontal for conventional flight.
