General Info

ESCAPELET benefits (shown AS the result of tests): - significantly reduced fuel consumption on ALL tests. - fuel burn reductions were near linear in proportion to the lift coefficients. - calculated fuel reduction = 29.92% AT the lift coefficient of 0.50. - improved takeoff and landing performance (NO brakes on test aircraft). - improved roll authority. Without increased roll sensitivity. - ailerons were still effective AT exceedingly high stall Angles. - improved safety DUE to increased stall spin resistance and recovery. ​- when vehicle 1 was flown with ESCAPELETS AT full power. Its speed increased by 18%.
