DESIGN CRAFTMANSHIP
01. DESIGN CRAFTMANSHIP
Quality is a dominant principal of Blackshape encompassing every single action we take, ensuring that every aircraft that leaves our premises exceeds your expectations. Blackshape uses highest quality prepregs, steel and aluminum in its products, following this philosophy driven by an unending quest for quality. Blackshape takes care of all the carbon fiber processes from lamination and moulding to autoclave curing processes and assembly.
02. ENGINE
The Blackshape Prime is available with three different engines: the Rotax 912, the Rotax 914 and the brand new Rotax 915 iS. The Rotax 912 represent the classic reliability combined with low energy consumption hence ideal for flying long distances. The Rotax 914 is for those pilots who are considering a boost in the performance, with more power and more uniform performance at different altitudes. Rotax 915 iS, with a maximum power of 141 HP, is the engine with best power-to-weight ratio that perfectly matches the flight capabilities of the Blackshape Prime.
03. AVIONICS
Blackshape employees the Skyview by Dynon to provide pilots innovative avionics packages that are in line with those found in airliners and business jets. Dyson Skyview represents the state-of-the-art for light sport planes providing PFD and MFD capabilities in a compact 10” display.
