DIDN’T BREAK THE SOUND BARRIER, BUT… – December 21, 2022

December 21, 2022


We did break our Prineville Airport record speed, going 95 mph before we had to throttle down and brake at the end of the runway. This testing is with our new 7-blade propeller, which is performing even better than anticipated.

The video here shows the last stretch of acceleration, and then the braking and exiting for the day. The testing went well and is continuing now. Switchblade designer Sam Bousfield was at the wheel and you can definitely see how he felt about it!
