In 2016 we participated on the prestigious trade fair of aviation industry in Friedrichshafen. We are ”’already preparing”’ our stand for this year’s event. We can tell you that it will be really worth visiting. We will inform you more about the ”’AERO 2017”’ in the following weeks. It takes place on 5-7 April.

PARTNERSHIP WITH GP GLIDERS

A very important part of 2016 was our cooperation with GP GLIDERS, thanks to which the electric glider GP 14 SE Velo took off in December.

MGM COMPRO for ByeGravity

We have cooperated with our partner on the development of complete propulsion unit including Battery Management System (BMS), Battery Accupacks and Electronic Speed Controllers (ESCs). We hope that together, we can develop products, which will soon be spotted on the sky.

Professional machine or sci-fi vision of the future?

The most interesting project by our partner is undoubtedly the drone called FLIKE. It can carry enormous load of 400 kg and is one of the largest tricopters in the world.

Among its top advantages belong very easy maintenance and both remote and onboard controlling systems. The main and very ambitious goal of the project FLIKE is nothing less than to change the way of transportation we know today.

Applications of ByeGravity solutions

ByeGravity develops special solutions for multicopters with carrying capacity between 50 and 400 kg. This company also offers services and consultations to other companies with similar vision. They take their functional solution and modify it for concrete projects.

One of their own systems, Failsafe Flight controller system secures safe landing of the aircraft with its 3 computer systems. Bye Gravity has also developed the system that allows drones to land safely even with one motor out of order.

Wide range of FLIKE’s use

• Border security – When it comes to daunting intruders by sole demonstration of power, size does matter. And ByeGravity drones are simply huge. They are not just there – they dominate the territory
• Search & Rescue – Drones are known to perform in the search part quite well. ByeGravity multicopters can do the rescue part too.
• First response – When every second counts, traffic jams or terrain barriers may result in impermissible delays. Paramedics, firefighters and police officers riding ByeGravity personal transportation devices are les exposed.
• Transportation – ByeGravity drones are capable of forwarding freights up to 100 kgs safely and autonomously. Payload can be deployed mid-air or after automated landing.

MGM COMPRO for ByeGravity

We have cooperated with our partner on the development of complete propulsion unit including Battery Mnagement System (BMS), Battery Accupacks and Electronic Speed Controllers (ESCs). We hope that together, we can develop products, which will soon be spotted in the sky.

The main goal of this project is a development of one-seat helicopter with two independent emergency propulsion systems.

These two propulsion units are unique, their target is a maximum safety for the flight. Main propulsion unit is the combustion engine, electric ones are used in the event of any damage or malfunction of the main one as a backup drive.

Within a few seconds after damage or any problems of combustion engine, electric propulsion unit gives power for immediate emergency landing.

Helicopter features

• Combustion engine Subaru, performance 100 KW
• Diameter of blade 7 metres
• Prototype, manufacturing scheduled for 2018

Electric Propulsion System

• Electric Motor NT Power, 20 kW
• Industrial Electronic Speed Controller MGM COMPRO HBC 50063
• Li-Ion Battery Accupack for 63V (Battery Accupack Li-Ion 63V)

First testing of this unique electric propulsion system for helicopters was in the middle of July.

Check out the video from the testing!

The task for MGM COMPRO was to come with an appropriate solution in about 2 months, quite challenging task, but we made it!

MGM COMPRO Electric Propulsion System in details

•  Motor REG 30 (12 kW)
•  Electronic Speed Controller HBC 25063
• Batteries Kokam 40 Ah 14s
• Balancing Chargers 30A
• Airborne BMS
• Two-blades propeller 71 cm

A great reward for our engineers: an amazing flight of this two-motor glider above the beautiful Russian countryside. Don’t hesitate to check this out!

Complex electric propulsion systems expand

MGM COMPRO is an exclusive supplier of electronic components and Complex Propulsion Systems for a wide range of gliders from all around the world.
You can learn more about our cooperation with GP Gliders, as well as about the partnership with a very well-known company in this field – Ruppert Composite GmbH.

Even more projects are in the stage of negotiations and we will keep you informed about any new achievements.

We are talking about the lines GP 12 FLEX, GP 14 VELO from the product portfolio of our partner.

Technology used in GP GLIDER 14 VELO electric

• MGM COMPRO Electric Speed Controller HBC 280120
• Peszke folding propeller – 110 cm
•  Motor RET 60 (with power range up to 20 kW)
•  MGM COMPRO BMS
•  Li-Ion Battery System

Watch the video from testing of the GP 14 VELO Electric Propulsion Unit.

GP 15 JETA – Development of future Electric Glider

We are really glad that GP GLIDERS share the same philosophy with MGM COMPRO: “Development should never stop and it is necessary to work on it intensively.”

This is why our companies also closely cooperate on the project of future electric Glider called GP 15 JETA (wingspan 15m). The expected date of the first flight is summer 2018 and MGM COMPRO is a proud developer and supplier of the whole electric propulsion system.

Stay in touch with us, we will keep you informed about this project!

To learn more about this project, visit their official website.

The engine gives a power of decent 24,5 HP, weighing only 5,3 kg! The provided thrust enables the pilot with the weight up to 85 kg to take off from the totally flat areas. These engines allow you to enjoy the flight of amazing 60 minutes thanks to 63 Ah Li-Po batteries and 130 cm propeller.

Brushless engine, batteries and controller are free of maintenance and thanks to the top-of-the-range MGM COMPRO ESCs you can configure power to get the best out of your setting.

Paragliding with PARACELL

And now “the icing on the cake” – PARACELL in cooperation with MGM COMPRO gives you the possibility to enjoy your flight with reduction of more than 60% of noise and thanks to the electric technology you won’t feel any vibration. It’s a new way of paragliding!

We wish PARACELL a lot of success in the future and we believe that the close cooperation with MGM COMRO will continue!

This is PARACELL in brief

Check out the paraglide in action!

Lampuga’s thrust

You can’t overlook the jet engine, which delivers unbelievable 15 HP! This astonishing power is transformed into a forward thrust giving max. speed of 32 mph. Crazy, isn’t it? But the parade continues! You can use a very decent range of 12.5 miles, which is provided by lithium batteries with duration of 35 minutes. You can recharge them in 60 minutes by using common 230V plug and continue in having pure fun on the water.

The control over is provided by a steering belt which carries the accelerator throttle. It is attached to the bow of the board, providing a secure connection. Riding this jet board is so smooth and agile that everybody can enjoy it!

We are glad that MGM COMPRO ESCs play a very important role in providing such a great fun. We also wish a lot of success to the Lampuga project!

Check out the pure enjoyment on the water in the video below!
