Due to the rapid progress in electric model drive technology, we can now also offer the Rafale with retractable landing gear.
It can therefore be ground-launched on hard slopes as well as on short-mown and level lawns.
In this way, the two-engine jet model gains additional fidelity to the original both on the ground and in the air.
The 3-piece pneumatic retractable landing gear with steerable nose wheel is available as an accessory set, item no. 7358/52 available.
A new, extremely weight-optimized fuselage made of aramid fiber completes the update, offers maximum strength and helps to further phenomenal flight performance.
All frames required for installing the undercarriage are cut according to CAD data and are included in the set.
The conversion was only made possible by a completely new engine concept.
A particularly efficient 120mm impeller replaces the previous drive solution consisting of two smaller impellers.
This completely newly developed full-carbon electric fan generates up to 40N static thrust with the appropriate engine power.
Even when using the highest quality drive components, there can also be cost savings compared to the previous solution.
We recommend Kontronik Tango 45-08 with 28 cells GP3000 or GP-3300 or Tango 45-07 with 30 cells as motorization.
With this, at approx. 1650 W input power and 22 000 rpm. about 36N thrust.
As with the originally offered Rafale (Order No. 1347/00) with twin engines, the impeller is easy to install and maintain due to the division of the fuselage.
The merging of the air jet in front of the engine as well as its division in the area of the thrust tube are ensured by aerodynamically specially formed GRP downpipes.
which are custom-made and included in the scope of delivery.
