- Wheels
This is how the wheels are attached to the construction, notice there aren’t any metal parts. Break system is also almost completed. As for the front wheel we decided not to make it steerable as we don’t need it in the fields and it makes the construction stronger as well. - Weight
Total weight is approx 45 kg without the wings, ballistic chute, instruments, propeller and exhaust system. - Construction
Here you can see a 80kg pilot standing in the construction, as you can see it is very strong and you can fly even without outer skin. - Flaps handle
Total flaps handle movement distance is 30 cm (Brightstar swift has the same 30 cm due to less number of blocks for flaps line, therefore total flaps handle movement distance is 30 cm),
0 position is on the second stop from right. If handle unlocks it does not stop at 0 position, it moves to minus, that’s why we are making upgrade of the design. This is the upgrade – we will do to the flaps control to fix the issue of flaps going past 0 position We will also should have security system witch stops flaps movement if the handle is broken by brute pilot force or some accident. Also the spring witch holds the handle in the slots is mandatory.
- Flight comfort
We developed new flight control for Aeriane SWIFT.
