The ultimate "off road" vehicle
All of the research of R/CR&D has been directed to the goal of personal vertical flight. By experimentation, testing
and evaluating the designs and concepts it was realized that the Hover Jet engine could be adapted to a full sized manned
light aircraft. It is fully possible that the full-scale adaptation of the Hover Jet technology can be achieved with the
use of high performance ducted fans. Therefore, the Pegasus Aircycle has been designed as a technology test bed to demonstrate
the theories in a practical application.
The design has delta wing avionics for balance and long glide. The cockpit features wide visibility during take off and landing,
large touch screens with electronic instruments, on board radar and GPS. The integration of SATS control systems will insure
interactive operation with in future airspace architecures.
The Full-scale version of the Hover Jet engine is the Heavy Lift Vectored Thrust Compressor (HLVTC). The engine will provide
vertical flight capabilities to small light aircraft. It is designed to be light, compact and affordable to mass-produce.
