Zero Gravity's RX1E-A Electric Fixed-Wing Aircraft Delivery in China
TapTechNews May 19th news, according to the information of Zero Gravity Aircraft Industry, on May 18th, Rui'en Aircraft Industry (Zhejiang) Co., Ltd., which is controlled by Zero Gravity, officially delivered the first RX1E-A electric fixed-wing aircraft to an Anhui customer at Feidong Bailong Airport.
It is known that the RX1E-A aircraft delivered this time is the only electric light sport aircraft that has obtained a certificate in China, with outstanding advantages such as low noise, zero emissions, simple maintenance, high safety, and low operating costs, and its technical performance is at the leading level in the world. The aircraft can last for 2.5 hours when fully charged, and the core components have achieved 100% localization.
The RX1E-A aircraft delivered this time will be managed and operated by Anhui Yuchen General Aviation Co., Ltd., a general aviation enterprise stationed at Bailong Airport, and will mainly be used for flight training, flight experience and aviation research study.
In terms of scientific research test flights and new aircraft delivery, Zero Gravity has reached a strategic cooperation with Feidong Bailong Airport, and the latter will become the test flight base and new aircraft delivery center of Zero Gravity's new energy aircraft. In terms of the development of new energy aircraft battery, Zero Gravity has reached a strategic cooperation with Anhui Mengwei New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. to promote the innovation and development of new energy aircraft battery technology.
TapTechNews found out that Zero Gravity Company was established in March 2021, headquartered in Hefei High-tech Zone, and has R & D, operation, production, test flight and other branches in Nanjing, Shenzhen, Jiaxing and other places respectively. The company takes the manned eVTOL aircraft as the core, layouts diversified new energy aircraft such as electric fixed-wing aircraft and electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft, and promotes the development of the green aviation industry.
Fixed-wing plane refers to an aircraft that is heavier than air and flies in the atmosphere, in which the forward thrust or pull is generated by the power plant and the lift is generated by the fixed wing of the fuselage. (about 1.6 kilometers per hour)
