Ampaire has announced a new record set on the Electric Eel hybrid aircraft. The flying fuel flew in the air for about 12 hours and headed with fuel and an energy receiver for a 2-hour flight. The company's specialists note that this is a new record for hybrid ends.
During the flight, the Electric Eel overturned over Camarilo Airport in California and covered 2,213 kilometers. However, the range and duration of the flight significantly exceeds the mark specified in the technical specification of the conventional Cessna 337 Skymaster model - a 1,200-kilometer journey and a 5-hour flight.
"Electric Eel" is an improved version of the Cessna aircraft with a light power drive. The engineers worked with the electric drive of the front piston engine. Two power units operate separately from the base and in parallel. The assessment provided by Ampaire states that the intelligent hybrid aircraft Electric Eel will reduce fuel consumption by 50-70%.
