  • The First Affordable Race Car of the 21St Century the First Affordable Race Car of the St21 Century
    The first affordable race car of the 21st century The first affordable race car of the st21 century You don’t need a radical revolution just our progressive evolution. Nowadays, affordable racing is thought of as second level engineering. We think of it differently. High-end materials are no longer restricted to factory teams, and the ingenious simplicity of tubular space frame simply cannot compete with the strength to weight ratio of carbon fibre monocoque. Add in non-compromised, all- round safety, mix it with reliability, and wrap it in excitement and emotion. These are the visions behind R1. Does this sound like the last century to you? We live in the 21st century and we are aware of it. The perfect balance between attractive design and aerodynamic efficiency. We wanted the car to be stunning. But that isn’t enough without the added value that ensures our primary objective – to go fast. Combining the two might seem difficult, until you realize that well executed aerodynamics creates state of the art racing. R1 can in fact generate up to 1,5x times its weight through its sophisticated aerodynamics. Enhanced traction and the overall capability of the car to go fast around the corners is what differentiate R1 from its competitors. Where standard racing safety is not enough. Although we think light, there is no compromise in terms of safety. Racing rules dictate to mount a nose cone crash box on to the car. We think this is not enough. R1 crash safety structure is composed of bespoke honeycomb carbon fibre monocoque, carbon/Kevlar strengthening flooring, front and rear crash boxes, and side mounted crumple zones.

    ORBIS AVIA SM-92T(E) Praga robust multipurpose high performance turboprop aircraft ... ORBIS AVIA SM-92T(E) Praga The SM-92T(E) Praga is a single-engine high wing all-metal turboprop aircraft with fixed landing gear complying with EASA CS- 23 and FAA FAR 23 requirements. The SM-92T(E) Praga with unpressurized cabin can accommodate up to 7 people including a minimum crew of one. The plane is powered by GE M601 F (with an alternative GE H80/PWC PT-6) turboprop engine with three blade all-metal tractor type propeller AV-803. The aircraft´s conceptual design satisfies requirements for easy operation and maintenance, including operation in difficult climatic conditions of the Arctic Circle and desert areas. The airplane is able to operate anywhere where the ground has sufficient bearing capacity and therefore does not require approved airports for its operation. The aircraft also does not require hangar services. Specially designed high-quality aerodynamic wing profile allows the aircraft to operate within huge range of speed. Adequa- tely large control surfaces allow operation within huge range of values, all that resulting in a positive assessment of the plane´s user-friendliness and safety. The advanced avionics technology provides a more reliable system with greater dispatch reliability and ensures simplicity and safety to the cockpit. The aircraft is equipped by Garmin two-display system with 10 inch flat-panel LCDs interchangeable for use as either a primary flight display (PFD) or multi-function display (MFD) as standard flight deck. With the right equipment configuration, the system is capable of presenting flight instrumentation, navigation, weather, terrain, traffic and engine data on large-format, high-resolution displays.
