Electric Glider
The prototype Apis E was not developed in house at AMS. It was built up
from an Apis 15 meter kit by a very talented electrical engineer in Ljubljana, the capitol city of Slovenia. I saw the glider and met its builder/designer at AERO'05 in Friedrichshafen last April. At that time it had only flown twice. It now has over 35 flight on it. The prototype did not look like one, it look like a well developed serial production airframe. The quality of the motor instalation and cockpit was first class, this is evident in the link I provided earlier. One goal of my up comming visit to Slovenia is to look at what is being done to get the Apis E into production. The two owner of AMS have been to the last two SSA Convnetions and I believe they will be at the '06 Convention. The Convention organizers are looking into haveing a presentation about electric launch, I expect that will be well attended. Production plans and some delivery schedules should be made public then. Plans are for the production units to have USA made brushless DC motors, thus having much better efficency than the prototype.
