VoltAero has selected Safran’s EngineUs 100 electric motor to power its Cassio 330 prototype, and the company is partnering with Thales to implement airborne data collection and computing solutions for its Cassio family of hybrid-electric aircraft, the company announced this week at the UK’s Farnborough International Airshow.
The French start-up plans to produce three configurations of its hybrid-electric Cassio aircraft. Its initial prototype, a converted Cessna 337 Skymaster known as Cassio 1, has already logged more than 10,000 kilometers (6,000 miles) in test flights since 2019.
