E-Sling
The All electric Aircraft
Aircraft
Range: 250 km span width: 10.5 m MTOW: 950 kg cruise veloc.: 160 km/h passengers: 4The e-Sling has a range of 250 km, with optional range extender up to 350 km can be reached. To increase the range we increased the span width to 10.5 m. This will enable more efficient travel for 4 passengers at 160 km/h. The e-Sling keeps the maximum take-off weight of 950 kg, to ease the certification.
Battery
capacity: 55 kWh weight: 200 kg cooling: oil cells: 18650Our battery has an capacity of 55 kWh and will be placed in the wings, instead of the fuel tank, as well as in the motor compartment. For the main battery as well as for the range extender we use 18650 energy cells of the newest generation, which are cooled by silicon oil.
Modifications on the Sling TSi
The e-Sling is based on the Kit aircraft Sling TSi developed by Sling Aircraft from South Aircraft, who committed early as partner in the project and enabled us with their support to carry out this project.
The Sling TSi was modified at multiple spots to fulfill the demands of the electric drive train. Development engineer and co-founder A. Weiser supported the aircraft manufacture Sling Aircraft in South Aircraft with the planning of the new structures
