HI,
I came across this today. 250kts, 9000fpm climb, +/-10g. What's not to like? What's there we can actually believe?

The Electroflight sport race plane (code name: TEACO-BAT) is an entirely new, ground up aircraft design aimed at capturing the imagination of the sports and general aviation industries by demonstrating the economic and performance benefits of pure electric propulsion.

[h=5]The optimised aerodynamic shape of the aircraft afforded by its extremely compact electric propulsion system and a high thrust to weight advantage result in:-[/h]
- [h=5]
[/h] Very high top speed
- Ability to accelerate vertically
- Exceptionally good cockpit visibility
- Virtually no vibration reducing pilot fatigue
- No weight change during flight
- Quiet and pollution free operation
- Take-off weight including 75kg pilot of 420kgs
- Thrust (full power) 500kgs
- Maximum level speed 250kts, stall speed 60kts
- Twin 'engine' safety
- Rate of Climb (vertical) 9,000ft/min
- Airframe loading (piloted) +/-10G
- Airframe loading (UAV) +/-15G
- Ceiling (pilot on oxygen) 25,000ft, (UAV) 100,000ft
- Maximised pilot safety with aircraft parachute and crash cell
