Flap-free flight

May 6, 2019

MAGMA is an unmanned air vehicle (UAV) designed and built in collaboration with The University of Manchester to demonstrate novel control technologies. In a first for aviation, an aircraft has flown using supersonically blown air to control its movement in flight. Removing the need for complex moving surfaces with a simpler ‘blown air’ solution, engineers could create future aircraft that are lighter, cheaper and better performing.

Hydra-Electric Company

Hydra-Electric's patent-pending SENSORS excel where older technologies fail. Our pressure, temperature, and multi-function sensing solutions feature innovations which are able to survive high speed impulses, extremely high cycle counts, as well as pump ripple. Hydra sensors allow linear accuracy over a wider temperature range pump ripple, and are protected from severe environmental conditions and electromagnetic interference.
