Information

This presentation will review the project to develop and integrate the propulsion system for the APUS i-5 plane, which seeks to demonstrate the practical application of hybrid electric technology for a 4,500kg conventional take-off and landing flight test vehicle. The system could be used across a range of transport platforms to enable distributed electric propulsion, and will undergo several iterations to continuously improve power and energy density on a complete system level to enable the introduction of low-emission hybrid electric platforms into the market.
YASA: e-motors for hybrid and electric vehicles & aviation needsYASA designs and manufactures highly efficient electric powertrain solutions for hybrid and electric vehicles and has a growing reputation for driving innovation to meet the emerging needs of various Aerospace industry applications. Come talk to us to find out more. For a given power & torque requirement, YASA can deliver significantly smaller, lighter and more efficient electric motors, controllers and integrated electric drive units than any other competing technology. Furthermore, the motor technology is inherently lower cost than the competition when purchased in volume due to the motors exceptionally high utilisation of magnetic material and YASA's advanced manufacturing technology. The high performance YASA motors and controllers are suitable for range of markets and applications, and excel in the toughest environments where eficiency,  weight and space are critical for the end-user. In 2018, YASA officially opened its 100,000 unit per annum e-motor and controller automated serial production facility in Kidlington near Oxford, UK.
