Are there any upcoming updates or announcements regarding aircraft that feature fully electric propulsion systems? |

We still plan on creating example aircraft that use all-electric propulsion, but that's currently stuck in our backlog. The features needed to model one exist in Aviary, but those features aren't well tested, documented or have good examples yet. Those relevant pieces are the Apologies for the delay! |

Hi, any update on this? When can we meet except an example for a full electric aircraft? Thanks |

We are still working on this, although we've had significant delays - the current holdup is a lack of compatibility of specific features with the 2DOF equations of motion. Our all-electric example is designed to work with 2DOF and is currently non-functional because of those issues. That problem is being actively worked on and might possibly be the last hurdle, but I don't know for certain yet. |
