It is here at last!!!
After last year's attendance of the first electroscale Aeronca K flown by
Bob Benjamin on the world championship F4C (see refer ….) we celebrate further
gigantic success. E-powered acrobat participated for the first time at the
world championship of acrobatic specials F3A in Deblin - Poland (August 5-17,
2003). The aerobatic model
Rhapsody
was flown by Jason Shulman member of the American team. Jason finished on 4th
place and his team won. A lot of congratulations.
According to Tony Stillman
(his reportge you can find here) the drive is quite equivalent to
gas-engine (YS 140DZ or OS 140 EFI), flight time is 15 minutes, unlimited
vertical flight. Drive noise is 93 dB(A), but it is very silent in the
air.
