The future of light sport aviation is ELECTRIC. I think this plane will get to 120 minutes in a year´s time and then the world will change. Only true pioneers can understand such a revolution coming. Congratulations.
What an eloquent spokesman from the UK! Whether you are a fan of electric flight or not, these guys have a great argument for why it’s an important niche and they are the ones to fill it.
Why aren't you adding solar cells to the wings to extend the range a bit and allow the aircraft to recharge when in remote locations where a charger is not available?
Thank you for a great bit of electric innovation in aviation-there seems to be so little of it, and where you can find it the prices are outrageous. One tiny bit of advice with your videos is to talk less and allow the person you are interviewing most of the talking. Again, thanks for this rare piece on electric flight innovations.
Yeah Viking is cool. Just Google Eggenfellner Subaru…..In the mean time, how many years has an electric motor been powering the furnace fan in your home? When was the last time it went bad? I’ll wait. Someone told Orville and Wilbur they could never fly, now look on Flightradar24 how no one is flying…..
Had a chance to speak with them at OSH. Great guys with a very realistic and well thought out plan.

Love seeing this! Seems like a great use case.
Very interesting indeed!
My normal flight in my Light Sport is a 1 hour lollygag around the neighborhood. This would be perfect!
Phantastic project, go electric !!!
Well done Tim. Great interview and looking cool as ever. 😁

Too heavy and would not yield any usable power. Leave the panels on the ground.

rnage?
What happens if battery shorts out in flight? Strap on parachutes!
Electric plane is real dumb.
90 mins to 2 hours .....by 2027 ....I will take a viking 130 Alex ...

Nope
Worthless endeavor.
Noooo eletric nooooooooo 😡
Lol such a weird thing to get mad about. If it's not for you, don't build one.
