Description: We are the Canadian distributor for Pipistrel Aircraft.
Velis Electro is world’s first electric powered airplane to receive a Type Certificate (EASA.A.573 TCDS). The two-seater, intended primarily for pilot training, is a game-changing aircraft in terms of technological innovations and cost-efficiency. Velis Electro can be operated commercially and is fully approved for pilot training as well as other operations. With its quietness, Velis Electro can bring flight training much closer to urban areas without adversely affecting communities’ quality of life. Ease of operation with an intuitive powertrain and impressive ergonomics come as standard.
Clean & Quiet
The Velis Electro produces zero emissions during operation and with noise levels of only 60 dBa is ultra-quiet both on the inside and outside. A revolution in sustainable flight, a game changer for ease of operation is not easy. You no longer have to dream about the future of sustainable flight, it is here and the Velis Electro has set the standard for electric flight.
Innovation & Safety
The Velis Electro was designed to be simple to operate and maintain with no compromising safety. Power comes from Pipistrelʼs own type-certified electric engine, the E-811, producing 57.6 kW from a 345 VDC electric system and inhouse developed dual battery system. This revolutionary powertrain is entirely liquid cooled, can be charged through the on board charging port with an external charger and has demonstrated levels of safety equivalent or higher than conventionally powered aircraft.
