E-PROPS GLORIEUSE : Range of In-Flight Variable Pitch Propellers for ROTAX serie 9xx
Extreme cold tests :-)
Very special blades, isn't it ?
For the moment the variable pitch mechanism stays confidential
Thank you for your interest in our range of in-flight variable pitch propellers GLORIEUSE for ROTAX 4-strike engines, currently in tests.
We are working hard to propose high quality, innovative, ultra-light and very reliable propellers.
At E-PROPS, each model is tested during some years before introduction to the market.
The GLORIEUSE range will be launched when all the tests have been validated.
We understand - and share - your impatience, but at E-PROPS, quality and reliability are coming before any other consideration.
=> Currently (January 2021), we carry out different flight test campaigns, and for that, the company E-PROPS hired a test pilot, Samy.

We're in the process of industrializing the Variable Pitch Propellers line.
We manufacture the parts in the final moulds, and then we're going to put the propellers through a whole battery of mechanical tests.
This VP propellers concept is particularly innovative and required a great deal of development time and upstream testing.
Naturally, the health situation of this year delays us a little...
Now we're almost there. A little more patience and the first models will come out of our workshops in Sisteron !
