Variable pitch controller
Being a "big boy" among its kind - questions might arise about its stability.
Our variable pitch controller comes to solve all these issues and put your mind at ease, as the propellers have the ability to instantly change angle ensuring instant correction to anything weather might literally throw at us.
Environment concern
Even though we are conscious about the environment problems we could not go to electric engines for this product of ours ... YET!
Unfortunately the batteries' industry is a bit behind our aspirations and there is no battery available which could enable us to even get close to the performances our current setup,
However, we are constantly monitoring the market, and as soon as something airs - we are ready to shift to electric engines. After all - this will actually solve some the challenges we've had to overcome - like the number or parts, the vibrations and much more.
