E-Blue Retracts E-Brake System

 

   The simplicity, reliability, and convenience of an all electric model is now available for these 3 BVM jets.  We worked with the staff at "Down and Locked" (Mill Spring, NC) to convert our AirBlue Retracts to electric power and control.  Additionally, we developed the E-Brake here at BVM, so now you can enjoy the benefits of an all electric jet.
  Your trip to the flying field is more simple, "no air pump" required, and of course, those pesky tiny air leaks are a thing of the past.
  The BVM "All Electric" jets utilize small, inexpensive, JR Sport 35 servos to operate the wheelwell doors that are properly sequenced by the "Down and Locked" control module.
  The original BVM O'Ring Brakes are actuated by a servo/cylinder device that allows complete proportional control.  The assembly fits into the models where former air storage tanks were installed.  When used with a JR8411 or Spektrum 6030 servo, the E-Brake assembles in a matter of a few minutes.
  The E-Blue retracts are completely assembled and tested at BVM.  The retract frames are identical to the AirBlue retracts so they mount interchangeably with the AirBlue units in the 3 jets shown above.

Note:  The E-Blue retract's bolt-in pattern is the same as the original BVM carbon fiber mechanical retracts.  Actuation motors can be arranged inboard or outboard on main gear.  This will allow you to retrofit these new E-Blue gear to an early BVM airframe.

Q's and A's

Q's:  How about converting my AirBlue to E-Blue?
A:   BVM can convert your existing E-Blue retracts for $650.00 and return shipping.

 

Q's:  How about the MiG-15, T-33, and F-80 becoming all electric?
A:  Things take time, just as with the AirBlue to E-Blue system upgrade, we will have a program to convert these models later - perhaps a year later.
