Developed from our first Futura prototype almost 3 years ago. Experience gained with our Mike Murphy adapted turbo-prop unit, has prompted the development of a customer friendly package.

Separate turbine & gearbox units will not be available for some time, but complete Alouetts (specially adapted to take our units) should be on offer soon.

A complete package will include ECU / AUTO START AND RUNDOWN. Turbine, free turbine and gearboxes, Robbe Alouette kit and mechanics with all modifications finished and test flown.

Limited Availability

Initially only complete test flown models will be supplied with full customer training. An initial batch / production run of 10 is hoped for in early 2001, on a first come first served basis.

All up weight is around 10Kg, rotor diameter 1.8m, height 0.6m.
Fuel: paraffin / oil mix, 1Ltr / 7 mins. (hover).

Power is around 4.8 Kilo thrust, derated for gas generator use in the helicopter.
