China's independently developed AG60E electric aircraft on Wednesday (January 3) completed its first flight at Jiande Qiandao Lake General Airport, Zhejiang.
According to Xinhua News Agency, AG60E is independently developed by China Aviation Industry Group General Aircraft Co., Ltd. It is a single -round single -wing light sports aircraft with two -seater., Navigation Company, Private users, etc., for flight experience, basic flight training and private entertainment flight.
The aircraft has a length of 6.9 meters, 2.6 meters high, and a wing show of 8.6 meters. The maximum take -off weight is 600 kg, the maximum flat speed is 220 kilometers per hour, and the maximum cruise speed is 185 kilometers per hour.
The person in charge of the aviation industry flying is introduced that the aviation industry's flight uses the existing mature general aviation equipment platform to carry out electrifying modification on the styling aircraft to verify the key technologies of electric aircraft.
Since the project was launched in August 2022, the development team has carried out a number of tasks such as motor, electrical control, electric aircraft safety, and airwing conformity design technology research, and completed the AG60 light sports aircraft electric electricity electric electricityThe modification has broken through many key technologies such as the design and system integration of pure electric power devices.
Compared with traditional fuel engine aircraft, the output power attenuation due to the increase in altitude increases. The motor is basically not affected by such factors. It can provide continuous climb power for the aircraft and shorten the climbing time.In addition, motor noise is smaller, more environmentally friendly and comfortable, its structure is simpler, easy to use and maintain, and can save user costs.
In addition, as a light sports aircraft, the AG60E electric aircraft has a strong airport adaptability and can take off and land in non -pavement tracks such as grassland and hardening land.
In addition to electric aircraft, according to Xinhua News Agency earlier reports, the first two -ton electric vertical take -off and landing aircraft (EVTOL) M1's first aircraft (EVTOL) M1 independently developed in China successfully completed the test flight in Shanghai last October.
This EVTOL has a maximum load of 500 kilograms, which can be taken by five people. The cruise speed is 200 kilometers per hour, and the design range is 250 kilometers.In the future, it will be mainly used to solve the needs of short -distance air travel in cities and cities, and shorten the distance between two to three hours of drive to about 30 minutes.
