Flapper is actively working with companies to reduce its carbon footprint, and is buying 20 magniX EPUs to convert its Caravan fleet to electric power over the next couple of years.

The production aircraft will be a multi-purpose vehicle that has been designed to accommodate future advancements in technologies, such as hybrid-electric power and embedded auxiliary power units.

Operating at 2,300 rpm or less, magniX's direct-drive EPUs are liquid cooled and designed for 30,000 ft of altitude in unpressurised environments. The systems can drive a propeller governor and standard accessories.
