 The AMT AT-400 prototype engine was exercised multiple
times in the BVM Rafale demonstrator. Since Superman, we have reconfigured the
wing controls (ailerons and elevators are now all moving elevons) to enhance
the super "High Alpha" flight envelope.
 The control setup and this super powerful engine along
with some piloting skills put the Rafale into the 3rd dimension, and, it will
also safely handle the 200mph stuff.
 Customer reaction to this new "Realm of Flight" for the Rafale has
been very positive. We will publish the control setup soon.
 A recent practice
opportunity at the RCACF field in Orlando, Fl allowed us to demonstrate some
very entertaining, low altitude, high alpha aerobatics. |
