The autonomy of the Antares 18T and the Antares 23T can be substantially increased by introducing auto-towing as a permitted launch method. The first comprehensive round of flight testing has has now taken place. Read more
Now the testing of autotow at Reinsdorf near Berlin has been continued using an Antares 23.
… was the title of the resulting newspaper article. On 5.2.2011, previously unattained heights were reached in the lee wave of the Palatinate Forest. On this day our colleague Jochen Polsz was able to fly his Antares 20E to a maximum altitude of over 7,000 m ( 22 966 ft ). The video shows impressions of this eventful day.
The ultimate load test was performed for the certification of the Antares 20E.
The test was carried out at a component temperature of 54°C at the Institute of Structures and Structural Technology at the German Aerospace Center ( DLR ) in Stuttgart.
On Friday, November 30, 2012, the weather was kind and we were able to perform the maiden flight with the newly designed self sustainer engine of the Antares 18T. Due to the good motorization, the takeoff could be performed as a self-launch. Lifting off after about 200 m, Axel Lange then climbed to the cloud base at 1800 m above sea level without any problems. The mean rate of climb from place height (340m NN) to 1800m NN was exactly 2.0 m/s.
The new self sustainer engine for the Antares 18T and Antares 23T was put into operation for the first time on August 16, 2012. As hoped, the engine showed exceptionally low vibration levels even under full load.
