Yes there is a lot of development being done in the hybrid space as energy storage solutions aren't quite good enough for the longer range flights currently. One example is a VerdeGo Aero. Hybridization is also a good…
Initial gearbox design life is ~40k hours. Bearing life is expected to be upwards of 10k hours. Additionally bearings are designed to be easily replaced. Oil change interval is to be determined during endurance testing.
This is a good question. Aviation has the largest market space for this motor application. The aviation certification time frames are quite laborious, but we are mitigating this by diving into some other markets in the…
I appreciate the advice here. We are actively investigating the FAA Part 33 cert, but a standalone cert for a commercial electric drive hasn't been fully defined yet.
CAN is pretty typical interface for inverters & drives. We communicate the commands via CAN and receive currents, temps, speed, torque, and errors back via CAN. We are using PCAN systems at the moment. In the past, GUIs…
