The FLASH-3 propeller range has a new innovative design, specific about its twisting axis and center of pressure.
Its aerodynamic design allows a "constant speed" effect, limiting variations in engine speed between on ground and in flight.
Highly efficient for short take-offs and towing, thanks to the high thrust generated.
These propellers allow for high efficiency throughout the flight envelope i.e.:
- Improved takeoff and climb rate due to higher engine speed, then higher engine efficiency
- Cruise extension
- A high user comforts
A wider chord than the FLASH profile delivers better take-off, climb rate and landing performance.
Equipped with grade 5 titanium hardware, this technology and manufacturing level and requirement degree have never been to this advancement. Their variable pitch carbon hub system allows a wide range of angle variation, while being secured by an innovative self-locking step system.
Blade pitch angle is controlled manually or automatically by a Constant Speed control unit. A visual pitch indicator can also be supplied as an option.
The energy supplied to the pitch variation mechanism and control system is partly electrical and partly mechanical, hence the name Hybrid.
