Advanced Air Mobility Companies Turn to Schubeler for Electric Fans
Schubeler Founder and CTO Daniel Schubeler gestures to a large testing stand, upon which is mounted the company’s biggest and boldest product launch in more than 25 years. “This is eP05-21 … designed specifically to power both manned and unmanned electric Vertical Take Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircrafts,” explains Schubeler. As a colleague powers up the unit, a quiet but powerful whir of electric propulsion builds to a crescendo as the electric ducted fan reaches full power. “eP05-21 is the first in a new line of Aerospace-specific products that will be referred to as Schubeler Aero. It’s tested and proven technology; we’ve completed intense wind tunnel testing in July as…
