Production ended in 2015 and the German which made it sold the rights and design to the Chinese company Jiangsu A-Star Industry Co., Ltd. I wonder why.
At 02:40 the prop rotates in beta range, I didn’t realise any turboprops start in this range! The blades look way too much in reverse, I’m guessing the video was reversed? Tells you the market audience for this video!
@@totosukatendel9209 Okay, I will do my best to explain the difference between pretty and ugly, and then I will explain my thoughts on some basic engineering. Please google search "Supermarine Spitfire, Lockheed Constellation and Staggerwing". These are designs that are aesthetically pleasing to most human beings. Now look at your airplane. It loos like Chere had too much botox and ate far too much curry before strapping an ironing board to her head and going on stage! It is ugly! Now explain why the landing gear design from a 1941 F4F Wildcat was used, with the wheels taken from your sister's roller skates!? This machine has a very high center of gravity, and you chose to place the main landing gears one meter apart! Let me know what else you want to know about?
Let me know if you need help with drawing the next thing that you might build, if you don't go out of business because of the last thing that you built?
Look nice, but poor payload with full main tank: just ennough for 4 passengers with light luggages and it's all... Empty: 1405kg ,MTOW 2130kg= 725kg empty load, main tank 468Liter (337kg), long range tank 212Liter (152kg)
The person speaking is Walter Extra, himself. I had an Extra 400 for 15 years and 1000 hours flight time. Mine had a 6 cylinder liquid cooled engine of 350 hp. The 500 is powered by a Rolls Royce turboprop derated to 425 hp. These are marvelous aircraft. Absolutely the best in class, but expensive to produce and was very expensive to certify for Europe and the US. It was the first single hull pressurized aircraft. At certified ceiling of 24,000 ft it makes 225 knots! Cabin is only at 6000 ft inside.

Hermoso avión, tiene muy buen diseño
Esse aviao é muito bonito! fiquei triste em saber que não fabricam mais desse aviao. : (
This guys voice is almost as awesome as the plane
Is that... Harry Shearer?
Awesome looking, strutless.
Hey fellow pilots, I have the RC version of the 500. They almost like identical. The fuse is fiber glass. nice and shinny.
Pretty aircraft - you said a lot without saying anything... No numbers...
it's my dream too
Stunning aircraft, but why doesn't the maingear retract simultaneously?
This looks very elegant to me!
Beautiful airplane, I love the unconventional strutless design.
Dutch?
No range , no speed, no cost, no fuel usage, what was this about? I admit the car was kind of cute.
I love how ugly it is. I love it. I love all propeller aircraft, especially turboprops
ส่วนฐานล้อต้องมีให้เลือกทั้ง 2 แบบเลยแบบพับเก็บกับแบบไม่ต้องพับเก็บตายตัว
The shape Reminds me of the Cessna 177rg
ใช่มันเป็นยุคใหม่ของวัสดุ

my favorite aircraft
This is my dream plane.
Are all of your dreams nightmares? It is a flying abortion!!

Uninformative video. A waste of my time
My feet smell.
