PIPISTREL ALPHA TRAINER

True to its tradition of continuous development and high-tech manufacturing, Pipistrel has released the Alpha Trainer, which combines the best quality with a fantastic price. Equipped with an E-Props propeller (Durandal or Glorieuse), the Alpha Trainer offers affordable flying with the best possible performance.

GLORIEUSE-3
This Glorieuse propeller is simply incredible on the Alpha Trainer !
At 5100 rpm, cruising speed is 115 kt / 213 km/h (MAP 25).
I gain 50 m at rolling, 250 ft/min of rate-of-climb and over 20 kt / 35 km/h cruising speed at 5000 rpm !
The Glorieuse propeller with spinner weighs 0.9 lb / 400 g less than the Pipistrel 2-blade wooden propeller.
The engine is much quieter, with much less vibration, so the lexan doors don’t shake at all.
The Alpha Trainer with Glorieuse is now another plane.

DURANDAL-2
On the Alpha Trainer: shorter take-off, higher climb rate, faster airspeed in level and the green bow used with less power than before => lower fuel consumption. The perfect combo.

A TOP propeller for an exceptional aircraft.
I am happy.

I am surprised by the difference between my wooden propeller designed for the alpha Trainer and this eprop three blade model. The new propeller completely changes my Alpha Trainer, flying faster and taking off shorter, without vibration. It's amazing how much a propeller can change an aircraft. I've heard that before, but this is a real thing. I am impressed by the quality of these propellers and how light they are.

Seduced for a long time by the design of the Eprops propellers, I wanted to try them on my Alpha Trainer, my plane that I love. I was happy with it. The performance has increased significantly. Thank you Eprops for making such great products. Thank you also for your outstanding customer service.

We're glad we chose this 3-blade propeller for our Alpha Trainer. She's a good shot and she's pretty.

DURANDAL-3
Hello Anne, I now have more than 350 hours with my ALPHA TRAINER equipped with its three-blade E-Prop.
I am really very satisfied with the performances obtained compared to the propeller sold by Pipistrel. The climb rate is better and I take off significantly shorter.
The 2000 hours potential of the E-Prop is a great advantage.
No more vibrations, as you told me. Your ultra-light three-blade is certainly a big part of that.
In short, I'm won over and I only want E-Prop on my aircraft.
Thank you for your high quality products and for your sound advice.

This 2 blade propeller is more powerful than the Pipistrel one on my Alpha Trainer, for all criteria.

Excellent propeller for my aircraft, light and powerful. That's important on an 80hp engine. Very good.
