e-Genius was the quietest aircraft of the GFC and wins the Lindberg Electric Aviation Prize (LEAP)! Congratulation to the team PIPISTREL!
Out of originally 13 teams the e-Genius completed the CAFE Green Flight Challenge with an phenomenal second prize. Only the team Pipistrel with their competition optimized double fuselage creation performed a little bit better. We are very proud that our aircraft was able to fullfill all GFC requirements with outstanding performance and is anyway suitable for every day use. In the future we might know if e-Genius is the prototype for powerful electrical flight. In the result list releasd by the CAFE Foundation you can see the amazing effectiveness of our aircraft.
The e-Genius team is very happy about this successful result. We want to thank all the sponsores and supporters for their help making the e-Genius project possible and that successful.
