In 90 seconds climb up to 350m - included take off. Temperature on copper EMRAX prototype 30kW (41HP) Air cooling motor windings was only 70 deg C. Max altitude is 3000m at one charging the batteries
Take Off and retroact the propeller in to the fuselage EA1:

ELECTRIC APIS EA1 is one of the first sailplanes in the world and the first one in my country - Slovenia EU (the first flight was 18. April 2005), which can take off with an electromotor and climb up to altitude 1800m at 50%DOD, even to altitude 3000m at 90%DOD. The altitude depends on the percentage of the discharging of the Li-Poly batteries. The best recomended discharging of the batteries is about 50%DOD. In this case the altitude is app 1800m and the batteries can give 1500 cycles http://kokam.com/english/product/kokam_Lipo_01.html

I did't find any suitable electric motor in the word for direct drive propeller - so I made it by myself. The high powered - BLDC electric motor EMRAX 30 kW continious power is reliable for each altitude. It operates with minimum noise and gives high power and excellent torque at low RPM (direct drive prop) for best climbing up to 6,0 m/s.

In the future solar cells on the wings will give enough nature energy for many take offs next day and to climb much over than 3000 metresof the altitude.

AMS flight used to produce APIS sail planes in many versions. I developed an electric propulsion system in my firm called ENSTROJ. In that time (in Y 2004) AMS made kit parts for my Apis e.e.

The firm PIPISTREL is a new owner of APIS gliders project now. http://www.pipistrel.si/planes/721

Apis EA1 has a newely designed canopy, an more efective inner ventialation, it has a retractable wheel with shock-absorber and many new designs for electro power system. The retractable wheel improve L/D = 41:1 and it also visually improves the stream line of the plane.The doors on the body are close when the motor with the propeller is outside or inside the fuselage. The electric system does not produce noise, it is clean, safe, reliable and virtually maintenance free.
